Explanation:

In the short story "Journalism in Tennessee" by Mark Twain, the protagonist is an editor that recently moved to Tennessee and describes the situation and events in the South using an humorous and sarcastic tone. The humorous setting and description of the South are included when the protagonist found the chief editor sitting in a three-legged chair and with an outfit that dated to about 1848.
