After doing some research, I believe you are referring to this text with the following choices for the question. 

<span>"Indeed, it is the reduction ad absurdum of Slavery, when the governor of Virginia is forced to hang a man whom he declares to be a man of the most integrity, truthfulness and courage he has ever met."
</span>
A. It is absurd to declare someone is a man of integrity while sending him to the gallows.
B. For a man of integrity to be executed while slave owners run free is an absurd notion.
C.Slavery can only lead to absurd conclusions because the premises are flawed to begin with.
<span>D.These are absurd times if men of integrity are being sentenced to hang for what they believe in.
</span>
When Emerson referred to "reduction ad absurdum of slavery", he most likely means that: "Slavery can only lead to absurd conclusions because the premises are flawed to begin with."
