The general equation of a circle with center (h, k) and radius r is:

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

Plugging in the given values, we get:

(x - 1)² + (y - 4)² = 3²
(x - 1)² + (y - 4)² = 9

Expanding this equation gives:

x² - 2x + 1 + y² - 8y + 16 = 9
x² + y² - 2x - 8y + 17 = 9
x² + y² - 2x - 8y + 8 = 0

Therefore, the correct answer is: x² + y² - 2x - 8y + 8 = 0.
