	Summary of Dunmore's Proclamation
		Taken together, the proclamation and Dunmore's military actions had several important implications that contributed to the inevitability of war.
		First, the proclamation intensified a growing distrust between masters and slaves by offering freedom to those slaves willing to fight for the king.
		The proclamation also noted that King George III had declared the colonies in open rebellion, upping the stakes and polarizing the colony into two camps, loyal and rebel.
