Anecdote

Anecdote: A brief recounting of a revelant episode, frequently personal or biographical. Aneccdotes are often inserted into fiction or nonfiction as a way of developing a point or injecting humor.

Example:
" bieng hanged in England is preferable  to dying a natural death in Ireland"

This is an anecdote  because he's talking about how he desired to go to Baltimore, and then he gave this anecdote talking about a prover of Baltimore.
