1763: The Treaty of ParisDirections: Actively read the primary source below using Four Corners then answer the question on the back side of the page.
Context: The Treaty of Paris of 1763 ended the French and Indian War (part of the Seven Years’ War) between Great Britain and France. The French gave up all of its territories in mainland North America, effectively ending any foreign military threat to the British colonies there.
Source: Treaty of Paris, 1763
1 In the Name of the Most Holy and Undivided Trinity, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. So be it.
2 Be it known to all those whom it shall, or may, in any manner, belong,
3 It has pleased the Most High to diffuse the spirit of union and concord among the Princes, whose divisions had spread troubles in the four parts of the world, and to inspire them with the inclination to cause the comforts of peace to succeed to the misfortunes of a long and bloody war, which having arisen between England and France during the reign of the Most Serene and most Potent Prince, George the Second… [the countries] have agreed upon the articles, the tenor of which is as follows:
4 Article I. There shall be a Christian, universal, and perpetual peace, as well as by sea as by land…
5 Article IV. His Most Christian Majesty renounces all pretensions which he has heretofore formed or might have formed to Nova Scotia or Acadia [Canada] in all its parts, and guaranties the whole of it, and with all its dependencies, to the King of Great Britain…
6 Article VII. In order to reestablish peace on solid and durable foundations, and to remove forever all subject of dispute with regard to the limits of the British and French territories on the continent of America; it is agreed, that, for the future, the confines between the dominions of his Britannick Majesty and those of his Most Christian Majesty, in that part of the world, shall be fixed irrevocably by a line drawn along the middle of the River Mississippi… and for this purpose, the Most Christian King cedes in full right, and guaranties to his Britannick Majesty the river and port of the Mobile, and everything which he possess, or ought to possess, on the left side of the river Mississippi, except the town of New Orleans… which shall remain to France…

1763Focus: Some years in history serve as turning points due to the large number of important events to occur. In American history, 1763 serves as one of those pivotal years. Today we will investigate the importance of this year by participating in a shared investigation of two sources from two critical events in this year. You’ll then compile your learnings into a full ANEZZEZZC paragraph assessment.
Activity #1: Breaking Down the Prompt
Directions: Read today’s inquiry prompt and circle the key words that unveil the task. Then record the historical thinking skill and annotation focus. Be sure to circle the key word that reveals the HTS. Be prepared to share before writing your initial hypothesis.

Prompt: Why was the year 1763 a turning point in the relationship between Britain and its North American colonies?
Group 1: Pontiac’s Rebellion
Historical Context: A popular Lenape (tribe in the Northeastern Woodlands) prophet named Neolin taught that Indians had been corrupted by European ways and needed to purify themselves by returning to their traditions and preparing for a holy war. “Drive them out,” he declared of the settlers. Fueled by the anger at their loss along with their French allies in the French and Indian War, a confederacy of tribes organized by a group of chiefs led by Ottawa chief Pontiac, made plans for a coordinated attack against the British, whom they greatly distrusted, in the spring of 1763. This combination of religious and political leadership was a pattern in the long history of Indian resistance to colonial expansion in North America. Their attacks on the British captured eight forts in the Ohio country. The British successfully defended the key forts of Detroit and Pitt and eventually won the war against the natives. The result, however, was that the British banned colonists from moving onto Indian lands west of the Appalachian Mountains through the Proclamation of 1763.
Source: Pontiac, Ottawa Chief, speech “Master of Life,” 1763
I am the Master of Life, whom thou desirest to know and to whom thou wouldst speak. Listen well to what I am going to say to thee and all they red brethren. I am he who made heaven and earth, the trees, lakes, rivers, all men, and all that thou seest, and all that thou hast seen on earth. Because… I love you, you must do what I say and [not do] what I hate. I do not like that you drink until you lose your reason, as you do; or that you fight with each other; or that you take two wives, or run after the wives of others; you do not well; I hate that. You must have but one wife, and keep her until death. When you are going to war, you juggle, join the medicine dance, and believe that I am speaking. You are mistaken, it is to Manitou to whom you speak; he is a bad spirit who whispers to you nothing but evil, and to whom you listen because you do not know me well. This land, where you live, I have made for you and not for others. How comes it that you suffer the whites on your lands? Can you not do without them? I know that those whom you call the children of your Great Father supply your wants, but if you were not bad, as you are, you would well do without them. You might live wholly as you did before you knew them. Before those whom you call your brothers come on your lands, did you not live by bow and arrow? You had no need of fun powder, nor the rest of their things, and nevertheless you caught animals to live and clothe yourselves with their skins, but when I saw that you inclined to the evil, I called back the animals into the depths of the woods, so that you had need of your brothers to have your wants supplied and I shall send back to you the animals to live on. I do not forbid you, for all that, to suffer, amongst you the children of your father. I love them, they know me and pray to me, and I give them their necessities and all that they bring to you, but as regards those who have come to trouble your country, drive them out, make war on them. I love them not, they know me not, they are my enemies and the enemies of your brothers. Send them back to the country which I made for them. There let them remain.

Group 2: The Royal Proclamation of 1763
Historical Context: A popular Lenape (tribe in the Northeastern Woodlands) prophet named Neolin taught that Indians had been corrupted by European ways and needed to purify themselves by returning to their traditions and preparing for a holy war. “Drive them out,” he declared of the settlers. Fueled by the anger at their loss along with their French allies in the French and Indian War, a confederacy of tribes organized by a group of chiefs led by Ottawa chief Pontiac, made plans for a coordinated attack against the British, whom they greatly distrusted, in the spring of 1763. This combination of religious and political leadership was a pattern in the long history of Indian resistance to colonial expansion in North America. Their attacks on the British captured eight forts in the Ohio country. The British successfully defended the key forts of Detroit and Pitt and eventually won the war against the natives. The result, however, was that the British banned colonists from moving onto Indian lands west of the Appalachian Mountains through the Proclamation of 1763.
Source: King George III, The Royal Proclamation, October 7, 1763
[for the] Indians with whom We are connected… should not be molested or disturbed… no Governor [may] grant Warrants of Survey, or pass Patents for any Lands beyond the Heads or Sources of any of the Rivers which fall into the Atlantic Ocean… We do… require that not private Person do presume to make any Purchase from the said Indians of Lands reserved to the said Indians…
Source: George Washington, Letter to William Crawford, September 21, 1767
1 I then desird the favour of you (as I understood Rights might now be had for the Lands, which have fallen within the Pensylvania Line) to look me out a Tract of about 1500, 2000, or more Acres somewhere in your Neighbourhood meaning only by this that it may be as contagious to your own Settlmt. as such a body of good Land coud be found… A Tract to please me must be rich… and if possible to be good and level…
2 [I want] to secure some of the most valuable Lands in the King’s part which I think may be accomplished after a while notwithstanding the Proclamation that restrains it at present and prohibits the Settling of them at all for I can never look upon that Proclamation in any other light (but this I say between ourselves) than as temporary expedient to quiet the Minds of the Indians and must fall of course in a few years especially when those Indians are consenting to our Occupying the Lands. Any person therefore who neglects the present opportunity of hunting out good Lands and in some measure marking and distinguishing them for their own (in order to keep others from settling them) will never regain it…
