He donates the poor people money
The first line shows that people were forcefully woken up and were frightened. Then, the third line, with the use of the word lair shows that the character being spoken about could be an antagonist. Finally, the use of the word slaughter shows that the character being spoken of is, indeed not good.
Assuming that these are the choices :
- Germany declared war against Russia
- Russia mobilized it's army to support Serbia
- France Refused Germany's request to remain neutral
- austria-Hungary sought Germany's support against Serbia
The event that happened last would be : Germany declared war against Russia, it happened in August 1914
hope this helps
