A:Knox's final encounter with Mary was prompted by an incident at Holyrood. While falsely believing that Mary was still absent from Edinburgh on her summer progress in 1563, a crowd forced its way into her private chapel as she was celebrating Mass. During the altercation, the priest's life was threatened. As a result, two of the ringleaders, burgesses of Edinburgh, were scheduled for trial on 24 October 1563. In order to defend these men, Knox sent out letters calling the nobles to convene. Mary obtained one of these letters and asked her advisors if this was not a treasonable act. Stewart and Maitland, wanting to keep good relations with both the Kirk and the Queen, asked Knox to admit he was wrong and to settle the matter quietly. Knox refused and he defended himself in front of Mary and the Privy Council. He argued that he had called a legal, not an illegal, assembly as part of his duties as a minister of the Kirk. After he left, the councillors voted not to charge him with treason. B:In the legal proceedings that followed the invasion of the chapel, could Mary provide her own eyewitness account of the mob's behavior? Answer: execution
A:During the joint session of Congress for the counting of the electoral vote on February 12, 1873, five states had objections that were raised regarding their results. However, unlike the objections which would be made in 1877, these did not affect the outcome of the election. B:If American elections were conducted in such a way that the electoral votes were final, with no possibility for objections to be raised, would the 1873 election have turned out differently? Answer: interactions
A:During the joint session of Congress for the counting of the electoral vote on February 12, 1873, five states had objections that were raised regarding their results. These objections had no impact on the elections ultimate result, though objections made in 1877 would influence that year's election. B:Regardless of whether an observer at the time agreed with the states or not, would he be likely to conclude that perhaps the electoral system was in need of some reforms before the 1881 election, given the way that objections had significantly impacted two outcomes in a row? Answer: interactions

A:Knox's final encounter with Mary was prompted by an incident at Holyrood. Shortly after Mary returned to Edinburgh from her summer progress in 1563, a crowd forced its way into her private chapel as she and the congregation celebrated Mass. During the altercation, the priest's life was threatened. As a result, two of the ringleaders, burgesses of Edinburgh, were scheduled for trial on 24 October 1563. In order to defend these men, Knox sent out letters calling the nobles to convene. Mary obtained one of these letters and asked her advisors if this was not a treasonable act. Stewart and Maitland, wanting to keep good relations with both the Kirk and the Queen, asked Knox to admit he was wrong and to settle the matter quietly. Knox refused and he defended himself in front of Mary and the Privy Council. He argued that he had called a legal, not an illegal, assembly as part of his duties as a minister of the Kirk. After he left, the councillors voted not to charge him with treason. B:Regardless of the crowd's intentions, does it sound like Mary herself was at real risk from this event at the chapel? Answer: execution
