Question 8 of 10 • CR - English 3 Sem 1 (1001375R) CR BCPS 2025-26
Read the excerpt from "For the Cherokee Phoenix.”But in case we should emigrate as a nation, where are we to go? Where is the country in the west, that will be congenial to Cherokee habits? Alas! there is none. The United States, by the late Treaty with the Cherokees of Arkansas, have ceded the only country that was somewhat fit and suitable for us. West of that country is one vast prairie, suitable only for the hunter and the savage; and north of that, is too cold for us. I repeat it, as well from my geographical knowledge as my travels, there is none.
