Answer:

D. restored the rights guaranteed by personal liberty laws.

Explanation:

The "Fugitive Slave Act" of 1973 and 1850 were laws that created regulations for capture of slaves, compensation of owners and punishments for those who help fugitive slaves. In response to that, the North created their own personal liberty laws in response to the one of  1973. When the second act came, in 1850, the Northern State institutionalized their help and passed new liberty laws.

In response to the Fugitive slave act, many northern states restored the rights that are guaranteed by personal liberty laws. Hence, Option D is correct.

What is the Fugitive slave act?

An act titled as the Fugitive Slave Act was passed by a political party named the Congress. The act was passed two times, one in the year 1793 and the second one in 1850. Although the act that was passed in 1850 was repealed in 1864. The act that was passed in 1850, focused on the slaves who escaped and also provided seizure and return to them.

If the focus is shifted to the act that was passed in 1793, it basically focuses on the enforcement of the law that was given in Article IV, of Section 2, of the U.S. Constitution. This law gives authority to the federal district judge or circuit court judge, or any state magistrate. With the help of the authority, they can take the final decision, and that also without a jury trial.

Thus, Option D is correct.
