Answer :

The correct answer is option B: B. Henry closes his listing of the attempts with the idea that continuing to "indulge in the fond hope of peace and reconciliation" will be done "in vain (Henry 3)." Here's why: 1. In MLA format, for in-text citations, the author's last name should be used. In this case, "Henry" is the author of the speech, so it should be cited as (Henry 3). 2. The page number (3) indicates the specific location from where the information was retrieved within the source, which is important for academic integrity and credibility. 3. The quotation marks are used appropriately to indicate the direct quote from the speech. 4. The citation is clear, concise, and correctly follows MLA guidelines for citing sources within the text of a paper.
