The answer is " The right was performed by the village elder."
The reason why is because both "rite" and "wright" are not words.
The word "write" means writing something down, when the word "right" means either the direction right as in left and right, or doing something right, correct. Also it can mean that someone has the right to do something or the right, privilege, to perform something as in the sentence "The right was performed by the village elder."
