Answer:

By establishing the source of the representatives’ authority

Explanation:

Ethos is a mode of persuasion that uses or mentions a source or figure that shows credibility, expertise or prestige in order to convince an audience that the information given is reliable, valid, or worth listening.

So, by establishing the source of the representatives’ authority: "the good People of these Colonies", which shows that the declaration of independence comes from the ideas of good people, Thomas Jefferson is using ethos as a rhetorical appeal.

What does the author convey with the statement, "the light goes out of the marsh"?
blagie [28]
This happens when Ruby becomes disappointed with Tom when the hose leaks and Ruby can no longer dive. The two stop hanging out, and Tom loses her friendship. 

The light, then, is the light that her friendship brought to his life. Her friendship is light -- it is happiness and is joy to Tom. When the two friends stop hanging out, the light goes out of the marsh. The author is saying the joy has gone out of Tom's life.
