876

[vaivish]

876. Too old to bear arms himself, Frederick Douglass served as a recruiting agent, traveled through the North to exhort Black men to join the Union army.
(A) traveled through the North to exhort
(B) and he traveled through the North and exhorted
(C) and traveling through the North exhorted
(D) traveling through the North and exhorted
(E) traveling through the North and exhorting


Oa is e.

Please explain.

[anshul265]

in choice e , travelling correctly modifies the entire phrase " Frederick Douglass served as a recruiting agent " and exhorting is parallel to travelling.

[stubbornp]

D looks better....

served should be parallel with exorted.....

IMO E.

D violates Parallelism..

Thanks,
