Correct Answer: (1)
Solution : The error lies in the first part of the sentence.
The error in the first part is that "me" should be replaced with "my". When one wants to show possession, the possessive pronoun my should be used instead of the objective pronoun me. So, it should be my being a stranger to indicate that the fact relates to the speaker.
Therefore, the correct sentence is: The fact of my being a stranger does not excuse his conduct.
