als there for him to build a complete wall over the niche measuring 6 foot by 3 foot. The staples and chains that were already attached to the wall, deep in the recess, before the two men arrived seems a little mysterious as well.Although Poe isnt blunt and doesnt just come out and say that Montresor had carefully designed the act in which was done to Fortunato, I believe that he tries to make it fairly obvious. He provides a lot of details and supporting evidence that may lead one to believe that it was a carefully planned homicide. The way in which he describes and chose to play out the situation, hints at what Poe was trying to reveal in this horrific short story....
