In "The Notorious Jumping Frog of Calaveras County", by Mark Twain, what the reader concludes about the story that Simon Wheeler is going to tell the narrator is <em>A) The story will be long and tedious</em>. Wheeler uses long descriptive sentences with bad grammar, and full of dialect. " ...if I asked old Wheeler about him,... he would... bore me nearly to death with some infernal reminiscence of him as long and tedious as it should be useless to me."
