Abraham Lincoln became a nationally known political figure based on a series of public debates with Stephen Douglas. Hence, option A is correct.

The 16th President of the United States, Abraham Lincoln, was an American lawyer, politician, and statesman who presided over the country from 1861 and 1865.

The seven public debates between incumbent and Republican candidate Abraham Lincoln were known as the Lincoln-Douglas debates and took place in 1858.

Lincoln spoke against the extension of slavery throughout the seven debates between him and Douglas, all of which lasted approximately three hours. Douglas contended that each region should have the freedom to determine whether to legalize slavery.

He first entered national politics in 1847 while serving a single term in Congress. In 1858, he made a bid for the Senate in a much-publicized race which he ultimately lost but which transformed him into a nationally recognized political figure. Thus, option A is correct.

In 1739 arrived among us from Ireland the Reverend Mr. Whitefield, who had made himself remarkable there as (a traveling] preacher. He was at first permitted to preach in some of our churches,
but the clergy, taking a dislike to him, soon refused him their pulpits, and he was obliged to preach in the fields. The multitudes of all [members of different religious groups that attended his
sermons were enormous, and it was a matter of speculation to me to observe the extraordinary influence of his oratory on his hearers
, and how much they admired and respected him.... It
was wonderful to see the change soon made in the manners of our inhabitants. From being thoughtless or indifferent about religion, it seemed as if all the world were growing religious, so that
one could not walk through the town in an evening without hearing psalms sung in different families of every street.
"And it being found inconvenient to assemble in the open air, subject to its [harsh conditions), the building of a house to meet in was no sooner proposed and the work of erecting the building
was carried on with such spirit as to be finished in a much shorter time than could have been expected. Both house and ground were vested in trustees, expressly for the use of any preacher pf
any religious persuasion who might desire to say something to the people at Philadelphia
Benjamin Franklin, from his autobiography, describing events in 1739
Which of the following most directly contributed to the decision in Philadelphia referenced in the excerpt to build a specific meeting house for the new preachers?
A Leaders in cities such as Philadelphia wanted to do all they could to limit the spread of new Protestant denominations in the colony.
B
Local authorities worried about radical ideas and believed that a central meeting house would make it easier to censor the sermons of the new preachers.
Religious pluralism was more accepted in the middle colonies and particularly in the colony of Pennsylvania than elsewhere.
D
Commerce was more important than religion to most colonists, so building a small meeting house would keep the new preachers isolated

I am strongly tempted to give the names of two or three of those little boys, as a testimonial of the gratitude and affection I bear them; but prudence forbids;--not that it would injure me, but it might embarrass them; for it is almost an unpardonable offence to teach slaves to read in this Christian country.
