1 The windmill was, in fact, Napoleon's own creation.
2 There was only one candidate, Napoleon, who was elected unanimously.
3 Even in the farmhouse, it was said, Napoleon inhabited separate apartments from the others.
4 Four days later, in the late afternoon, Napoleon ordered all the animals to assemble in the yard.
5 When the cheering had died down, Napoleon, who had remained on his feet, intimated that he too had a few words to say.
6 Meanwhile, through the agency of Whymper, Napoleon was engaged in complicated negotiations with Frederick and Pilkington.
7 One Sunday morning, when the animals assembled to receive their orders, Napoleon announced that he had decided upon a new policy.
8 Throughout the whole period of his seeming friendship with Pilkington, Napoleon had really been in secret agreement with Frederick.
9 As soon as they were weaned, Napoleon took them away from their mothers, saying that he would make himself responsible for their education.
10 He could not of course know--for he, Napoleon, was only now for the first time announcing it--that the name "Animal Farm" had been abolished.
11 By the evening, however, Napoleon appeared to be somewhat better, and the following morning Squealer was able to tell them that he was well on the way to recovery.
12 There, round the long table, sat half a dozen farmers and half a dozen of the more eminent pigs, Napoleon himself occupying the seat of honour at the head of the table.
13 In addition, Napoleon ordered the almost empty bins in the store-shed to be filled nearly to the brim with sand, which was then covered up with what remained of the grain and meal.
14 Smiling beatifically, and wearing both his decorations, Napoleon reposed on a bed of straw on the platform, with the money at his side, neatly piled on a china dish from the farmhouse kitchen.
15 It did not seem strange when Napoleon was seen strolling in the farmhouse garden with a pipe in his mouth--no, not even when the pigs took Mr. Jones's clothes out of the wardrobes and put them on, Napoleon himself appearing in a black coat, ratcatcher breeches, and leather leggings, while his favourite sow appeared in the watered silk dress which Mrs. Jones had been used to wearing on Sundays.
