withdrawing from the territory where the Ottawas lived

meeting with Pontiac to talk peace

Answer 1

putting a price on Pontiac’s head

Answer 2

• putting a price on Pontiac’s head

Step-by-step explanation:

In the spring of 1764, two British armed forces were conveyed, one into Pennsylvania and Ohio under Colonel Bouquet, and the other to the Great Lakes under Colonel John Bradstreet. Bunch's battle met with progress, and the Delawares and the Shawnees were compelled to sue for peace, breaking Pontiac's alliance.

Neglecting to convince clans in the West to join his disobedience, and coming up short on the sought after help from the French, Pontiac at last marked a settlement with the British in 1766. In 1769, he was killed by a Peoria Indian while visiting Illinois. His death prompted severe fighting among the clans, and the Peorias were about cleared out.
