Which sentence in this excerpt from Mark Twain's short story "The Celebrated jumping Frog of Calaveras County" is an example of direct
characterization?
I found Simon Wheeler dozing comfortably by the barroom stove of the old, dilapidated tavern in the ancient mining camp of Angel's, and I
noticed that he was fat and bald-headed, and had an expression of winning gentleness and simplicity upon his tranquil countenance. He roused
up and gave me good day. I told him a friend of mine had commissioned me to make some inquiries about a cherished companion of his
boyhood named Leonidas W. Smiley - Rev. Leonidas W. Smiley - a young minister of the Gospel, who he had heard was at one time a resident
of Angel's Camp. I added that, if Mr. Wheeler, could tell me anything about this Rev. Leonidas W. Smiley, I would feel under many obligations to
him.
Simon Wheeler backed me into a corner and blockaded me there with his chair, and then sat me down and reeled off the monotonous narrative
which follows this paragraph.
