The answer is:

Damon demonstrates his loyalty by taking his friend’s place, which later causes Dionysius to reverse his decision to punish Pythias.

In "The Legend of Damon and Pythias" the cruel king Dionysius of Sicily sentences Pythias to death, so his friend Damon requests the king to permit Pythias see his family for the last time. Thus, Dionysius allows Damon to take his friend's place in jail while he is gone. If he didn't return, Damon would be put to death. Finally, when Pythias is robbed and tied on the way back, the king is moved by Damon's selflessness and faithfulness, so he decides to let Pythias live.

Read the passage.

levacccp [35]

c.Poor Richard’s, which was published once a year, was a collection of miscellaneous information.

Grammatically, sentences A and B are incorrect. In sentence A the "and" makes the sentence incorrect. In sentence B "a collection of miscellaneous information" should be set off with commas but there's only a beginning comma. Also the sentence is missing a helping verb. C is the only one that is grammatically correct.
