If i had to guess, I would say the answer is "went"
Based on the given passage above, using the context, the meaning of the words in bold which are "I made earnest and successive appeals" would be this: I made several heartfelt requests. The answer would be the second option. When we say earnest, this means sincere or serious. Successive which means <span>happening one after the other without any break. Hope this answers your question.</span>
Sentence fragments are incomplete sentences that make absolutely no sense, so I'm assuming that the best answer to this questions would be B avoided when writing.
