Boxer fell and was injured badly. Squealer said he was arranging to take Boxer to Willingdon Hospital but when the van came, it read "Alfred Simmonds, Horse Slaughter and Glue Boiler, Willingdon. Dealer in hides and bone-metal. Kennals supplied". The pigs were taking Boxer to the knackers to be killed.
Boxer was sent to the glue factory. (They killed him.)
Betray them at the scene of the battle but is persuaded otherwise by squealer
The van that arrived to pick up Boxer was label for the slaughter house. The animals were distressed until Squealer informed them Boxer had actually be sent to a hospital.
Boxer was the one who disagree with the explanation that Squealer said about Snowball.
when squealer says that snowball was Jone's agent, boxer tries to think, but was vaguely troubled. he set his ears back, shook his forelock several times, and tried hard to marshal his thoughts. but in the end he couldn't think of anything to say. four pigs in the back stood up and was going to oppose the statement but suddenly the dogs let out menacing growls and the pigs fell silent and sat down again.
In Chapter 8 of Animal Farm the animals, except Boxer, don't know why Squealer fell off the ladder because they don't understand that he has been changing the Seven Commandments to suit the purposes of Napoleon the entire time. The also don't know that he is drunk, which was previously a commandment punishable by death.
had actually jumped to the conclusion that Boxer was being sent to the knacker's. It was almost unbelievable, said Squealer, that any animal could be so stupid. Surely, he cried indignantly, whisking his tail and skipping from side to side, surely they knew their beloved Leader, Comrade Napoleon, better than that? But the explanation was really very simple. The van had previously been the property of the knacker, and had been bought by the veterinary surgeon, who had not yet painted the old name out. That was how the mistake had arisen.
Boxer is admired by animals on the farm because he works so hard and is so strong. They want to be as devoted and able to the work as he is. Boxer fell while hauling stone for the windmill and hurt his lung. The pigs say they are sending him to a hospital in Willingdon but when the cart comes to pick him up, Benjamin points out what is written on the side of the cart "Alfred Simmons, Horse slaughterer and Glue boiler, Willingdon. Dealer in Hides and Bone-Meal. The animals realize that they are sending him to his death and try to get the cart to stop but fail. After he leaves, Squealer tells the animals that Boxer died in the hospital. He says he got the finest treatment and Napoleon didn't hesitate to pay any price. Squealer also explains that the cart says horse slaughterer on it because the hospital bought it from them and hasn't yet painted over it.
This is mostly a personal opinion, but I believe that Boxer suffered the most. He blindly followed the Pigs, exceeding the expectations they set for animals on the farm, later to be betrayed by the pigs, sold off to be made into glue.
The main characters are... - Mr. Jones - Napoleon - leader - Squealer - reporter - Boxer - muscle - Moses - Old Major - Snowball - Mollie - conceited - Mr. Pilkington - Mr. Fredrick
Boxer dies in Chapter Nine when the pigs sell him to a "'Alfred Simmonds, Horse Slaughterer and Glue Boiler,... Dealer in Hides and Bone-Meal." He is injured in his attempt to defend the windmill. However, Squealer weaves a brilliant and moving tail of how no expense was spared by Napoleon on Boxer's medical treatment, and that Boxer's last words praised Animal Farm in particular and Napoleon especially. This is a brilliant example of the cold and cruel exploitation of the loyal working classes and propaganda.
