Read the passage from The American Plague.

Adding to his frustration was the fact that very few official papers had made their way to him at Mount Vernon. Washington was a stickler for orderly files that he could search at a moment's notice. This was the most important way he kept himself informed about the hundreds of things happening in the fledgling nation. Unfortunately, when the government clerks had panicked and dashed from Philadelphia, they had abandoned all papers and records in boarded-up houses. No one knew where these documents were; and no one was willing to risk his or her life wandering, through the infected city in search of them.

What conclusion does the cause-and-reflect relationship in this passage support?

    Washington was frustrated because he didn't have access to his files because they were abandoned in boarded up houses.

    Explanation:

    Panicked clerks left the papers in boarded up houses during the plague. No one was sure of where they were and they were unwilling to risk their lives going house to house looking for them during a plague.
