Answer 1

C.so it would reach a significant number of people

Step-by-step explanation:

When George Washington was nearing the end of his second term in office as the President of the United States in 1796, he published a farewell address that was originally drafted by James Madison but edited and refined by Alexander Hamilton.

He published the farewell address to a Philadelphia-based newspaper the American Daily Advertiser on September 19, 1796, so it would reach a significant number of people and it did because it was widely circulated.
