I think this one is D, could someone check?

Read the passage.

excerpt from "Letter to His Son" by Robert E. Lee

Then there arose an old Puritan legislator, Davenport of Stamford, and said that if the last day had come he desired to be found in his place doing his duty and therefore moved that candles be brought in, so that the House could proceed with its duty.

Read the dictionary entry.
