Bierce uses the method to draw out a single moment in the life of the person to a long drawn introspection on life.
Explanation:
The Incident at Owl Creek Bridge by Bierce is one of the great short stories of all time.
It uses the last instant of a life of a solider who is sentenced to death for his introspection on life and his hope of escaping the ordeal.
This is drawn out in suspense by the methodical writing style of the writer who draws out the moment into a story that we start believing that he has actually escaped.
By the time the reality hits us the, he is already dead.

Answer:KID ANTRIM DID NOT ride across New Mexico Territory by himself. On October 2, 1877, he was spotted with a gang of rustlers on the old Butterfield Overland Mail route in southwestern New Mexico’s Cooke’s Canyon. Once again he had made a bad choice of associates—although as a fugitive himself, he had few options. The leader of the outlaw band, which liked to call itself “The Boys,” was Jesse Evans. Evans was approximately six years older than the Kid, and he stood five feet six inches tall, weighed around 140 pounds, and had gray eyes and light hair. Pat Garrett wrote that of the two, the Kid was slightly taller and a little heavier. Evans’s early history is as hard to pin down as Henry McCarty’s. At different times, he claimed both Missouri and Texas as his birthplace. He may have been the Jesse Evans who was arrested with his parents in Kansas in 1871, for passing counterfeit money. Tried before the U.S. District Court in Topeka, this Jesse was convicted and fined $500. Because he was so young, he received no jail time and was “most kindly admonished by the court.”
