Question

Read the following excerpt from “The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County” by Mark Twain:

“[…] I have a lurking suspicion that Leonidas W. Smiley is a myth; and that my friend never knew such a personage; and that he only conjectured that if I asked old Wheeler about him, it would remind him of his infamous Jim Smiley, and he would go to work and bore me to death with some exasperating reminiscence of him as long and as tedious as it should be useless to me.”

III. The sentence “[…] if I asked old Wheeler about him, it would remind him of his infamous Jim Smiley […]” in the first conditional tense should be written as “if I ask old Wheeler about him, it will remind him of his infamous Jim Smiley […]”.
IV. The sentence “[…] if I asked old Wheeler about him, it would remind him of his infamous Jim Smiley […]” in the third conditional tense should be written as “if I had asked old Wheeler about him, it would have reminded him of his infamous Jim Smiley […]”.
