Answer:
B). Combating
Explanation:
The most appropriate adjective to define Earp's qualities would be 'combating' as he is popularly known as the fearless lawman who was righteous in his conduct. This attitude and his efforts helped in transforming the lawless town of Kansas into a peaceful city. Infact, he died also during a gunfight with O.K. Corral. Although he got arrested several times due to his association with brothels but he never attempted to jump off the jail and later he became a police officer. Probably, this is why he is known as a lawman and a gunslinger too. Thus, <u>option B</u> is the correct answer.
