Anon, maybe?
A refusal = A NO
from 9`s = N for Napoleon(never seen that used before)
unknown = Anon

You're overcomplicating it trevor. Napoleon spoke French, n'est ce pas? So the answer is A 'NON'

I think the explanation is related to a refusal in French (Napoleon) = A non

Thanks Trevor. I thought it had to be anon somehow but I thought only of the meaning "soon."

second thoughts, i think a refusal in French (how Napoleon would have said it) = A non.
