Option A: Wrong
This statement does not seek to informative as it does not offer any intuitive meaning not does probe the cognitive ability of the reader. Not appropriate enough to fit in as an answer in this regard.

Option B: Wrong
The use of ''them'' here is confusing because it is clear as to what the intention of the writer is and why he has used the third person plural ''them''. Whatever the reason may be it is not a perfect fit at all.

Option C: Right
This is the most correct and perfect statement in all. It offers to separate the head-word ''William Kennedy'' form the subject and objects in a clearly distinct manner as to be more meaningful and concise.

Option D: Wrong
The head-word formation, modifier indicator and the predicate are missing in the order and format they ought to have taken or assumed. A clearly misprioritised sentence construction.

Option E: Wrong
This would have been correct also but for the object placement.
