Answer:

C. Immediately.

Explanation:

The term "summarily hanged" denotes the immediate execution of the order or punishment. This means there is no delay in the carrying out of the order.

When the statement reads <em>"any civilian caught interfering with the railroad . . . will be summarily hanged; the penalty will be carried out immediately."</em> The immediate effect of the punishment without any delay in its execution is in correspondence with the phrase "summarily hanged".
