The correct answer is C, as the Narrative of Sojourner Truth was published in 1850, eleven years before the Civil War. As it tells the story of the life of Sojourner Truth until that year, it has to take place before it.
Sojourner Truth (1797 - 1883) was an abolitionist and activist for women's rights. Truth was born under slavery, but escaped with her daughter in 1826. After turning to the courts to recover her son, she became the first black woman to win a trial against a white man. Sojourner's birth name was Isabella ("Bell") Baumfree. She changed her name to Sojourner Truth in 1843. She is widely known for her speech "Ain't I a Woman?", Which was pronounced in 1851 at the "Ohio Women's Rights Convention" in Akron, Ohio. During the American Civil War Truth helped in the recruitment of black troops for the American Navy. After the war, she tried unsuccessfully to obtain land grants from the Federal State for former slaves.

Deductive reasoning is basically the drawing of a conclusion based upon certain evidence.
