Leota spoke well about Mrs. Pike at first. However; all of that changed when Mrs. Pike recognized the petrified man. Mrs. Pike has used her perception or insight to see through the disguise of the Petrified Man' she and Leota had seen at a travelling freak show. The man is a fugitive r apist from California, with a price of five hundred dollars on his head, and Mrs Pike hasrecognized his photograph in a crime magazine owned by Leota. Mrs. Pike wins the reward and Leota is jealous. Leota was disappointed and upset that she did not find the wanted ad before Mrs. Pike (Lesson-"The Petrified Man"). The fact that Leota is jealous and gets angry shows howpetty she it because of not figuring out who the petrified man was and thus not receiving the reward. This was her own fault.

The pace of the text quickens to move the story to its climax, the completion of the windmill.

The pace speeds up here. Starting "By the autumn" shows that the narrator has skipped the daily, weekly or even monthly events until autumn arrives. We know the goal of this skipping is to be able to get to the part about the windmill since it is the last detail mentioned. Also, it says that "the windmill compensate for everything" showing that it is important to the animals. There are no flashbacks or examples of foreshadowing in these passages.
