Answer: (C) Sullivan believes Sarah will raise their children alone after his death.

Explanation:

Sullivan Ballou was a Union Major from Rhode Island who answered the call to go fight to keep the United States together after the secession of the Confederate states.

He wrote a letter to his wife in case he didn't make it back to her and in it he spoke of how his sons would either remember very little of him or nothing at all. He however trusted his wife to be able to raise the children and develop their characters into something good.
