章节摘录
Mr.Jones,ofthe Manor Farm,had locked the hen-houses for thenight,but was too drunk to remember to shut the pop-holes.With thering of light from his lantern dancing from side to side he lurched.across the yard,kicked off his boots at the back door,drew himself alast glass of beer from the barrel in the scullery,and made his way upto bed,where Mrs.Jones was already snoring. As soon as the light in the bedroom went out there was a stirringand a fluttering all through the farm buildings.Word had gone roundduring the day that old Major,the prize Middle White boar,had had astrange dream on the previous night and wished to communicate it tothe other animals.It had been agreed that they should all meet in thebig barn as soon as Mr.Jones was safely out ofthe way.’Old Major(SO he was always called,though the name under which he had beenexhibited was Willingdon Beauty)was so highly regarded on the farmthat everyone was quite ready to lose an hourS sleep in order to hearwhathehadto say. At one end ofthe big barn,on a sort ofraised platform,Major wasalready ensconced on his bed of straw,under a lantern which hungfrom a beam.He was twelve years old and had lately grown ratherstout,but he was still a majestic-looking pig,with a wise andbenevolent appearance in spite of the fact that his tushes had neverbeen cut.
