Answer:

Option B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Lawrence, is the right answer.

On 21st May 1856, there emerged the Sacking of Lawrence, while pro-slavery activists under the leadership of Samuel J. Jones and Douglas County Sheriff, invaded and plundered Lawrence, a town of Kansas, founded by the settlers of anti-slavery, who were trying their best to make Kansas a "free state".
