Inquired

According to Merriam-Webster’s dictionary, inquired is defined as to put a question: seek for information by questioning. In the reading “A Jury of Her Peers” by Susan Glaspell, the word appears on page 154 as stated, “I suppose anything Mrs. Peters does’ll be all right?” the sheriff inquired. “She was to take in some clothes for her, you know–and a few little things. We left in such a hurry yesterday.” Now knowing what the word means, the sheriff was asking a question for more information.
