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.

is there a story?

explanation:

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
