What is the author's tone in this line from William Dean Howells's "Editha"?

Then Editha's father said in his public-will-now-address-a-few remarks tone, "My name is Balcom, ma’am; Junius Balcom, of Balcom's Works, NewYork. . . ."


Sagot :

Answer:

Sarcastic

Explanation:

The author's tone in this line from William Dean Howells's "Editha" is sarcastic.

This is because, the author talks about what Edith's father said in his public address where he identified himself as Balcom, of Balcom's Works in New York. This is purely sarcastic because his name and company name are not Balcom.
