The correct answer is C. Tessie Hutchinson

Explanation:

"The Lottery" is a short story written by the American writer Shirley Hardie Jackson, that deals with the tradition of a town to gather for lottery every year with the objective of choosing someone to be stoned to death as they believe this lead to thriving crops. During the story all the families in the village gather in the square of the lottery, after this, the person in charge of the lottery called Mr. Summers mixes the papers on the lottery box to start with the process, while doing this Tessie Hutchinson arrives  hastily and late because she had forgotten that day it was the lottery day and she is the last in arriving. After this, Mrs. Summers checks all the families are there and the lottery begins with each family taking a paper and it is Bill Hutchison, a relative of Tessie, the one that gets the paper with a mark. After this, the members of the Hutchinson family need to select papers again and this time Tessie is the one with the marked paper and therefore the one stoned to death. Thus, in this story, the only person that arrives late to the lottery is Tessie Hutchinson who is also the one selected in the lottery.
