1) well, i called on good-natured, garrulous old simon wheeler, and i inquired after your friend leonidas w. smily, as you requested me to do, and i hereunto append the result. if you can get any information out of it you are cordially welcome to it. i have a lurking suspicion that your leonidas w. smily is a myth—that you never knew such a personage, and that you only conjectured that if i asked old wheeler about him it would remind him of his infamous jim smily, and he would go to work and bore me nearly to death with some infernal reminiscence of him as long and tedious as it should be useless to me. if that was your design, mr. ward, it will gratify you to know that it succeeded. which is the best definition of the word garrulous as it is used in this sentence? a) cruel and unkind b) overweight and generally unhealthy c) quiet, untalkative, and mostly silent d) excessively talkative in a rambling, roundabout manner
