Drays, carts, men, boys, all go hurrying from many quarters to a common center, the wharf. D. The doctor's and the postmaster's sons became "mud clerks."

The correct answer is A. Subjective narrator.

When a narrator is subjective, this one expresses or adopts the point of view of a specific character in the story. He usually knows what the character feels or think, but not what the other characters maybe thinking or doing. He has a limited vision of what is occurring in the story.
