"So—people a thousand years from now—this is the way we were in the provinces north of New York at the beginning of the twentieth century.—This is the way we were: in our growing up and in our marrying and in our living and in our dying."

What inferences, or conclusions, can be drawn regarding this statement? Wilder would like to write a play set in New York in the distant future. Wilder is uninterested in the lives of the people living in Grover’s Corners. Wilder wants more people to marry young. Wilder values the beauty and simplicity of daily life.

The answer is "Wilder values the beauty and simplicity of daily life".

Wilder, the narrator, conveys the message with a feeling of pleasure and satisfaction regarding the way he and the people from the provinces north of New York were. From the appreciation he exhibits when stating that they grew up, they lived, married, and died in there, we, as readers, can draw that Wilder values the beauty and simplicity of daily life.
