Answer 1

Answer: B)

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is referring to Abraham Baldwin who had lived in eighteenth century. He was an American minister, politician and ''founding father''. He was born in Connecticut and he has been called as founded father because he had found the University of Georgia.

When he was young, his father believed in him and he wanted the best for his son so he was paying his education and because of that he run into debts that later on he was slowly paying. When Abraham became a lawyer he was also paying his siblings education and he believed that, that kind of education should be free for everyone who wants to be educated and have high potential.
