Paul Mitchell, the Pig by Sandy West, 99 year old resident on Ossabaw Island:
One bright, crisp and heavenly morning I walked down the
long back hall of my beautiful old house
and started down steps to the road. At the bottom of the steps was a
ruffley black puddle. As I
watched, the black puddle unfolded
and became a small black
piglet who in time became Paul Mitchell. He was named for the famous hair
dresser who was badly needed by Paul.
Just like our beloved Lucky Pig , Paul grew up in the house and accompanied me on every
adventure.
You know animals will grow up to be what THE ANIMALS are supposed to be if humans will let
them. I never tried to make Paul what I thought pigs
should be. He is definately
a pig that is himself.
He dearly loves a man that works on the island called Richard. When Richard comes in the morning Paul
follows his truck a mile up to my house.
They immediately go under my window and Paul gives Richard's pocket a
healthy snout whack. Richard then takes his cell phone
out of his pocket and sticks it
under Paul's nose. Paul
snorts and growls and chats until Richard removes the phone. Upstairs, on my cell
phone I hear the operator say
“Message finished. It will be
saved for twenty-one days”.
Paul scares the shirts off of strangers. He is so glad to see someone new on the
scene that he crashes out of the woods and runs at them. He really just wants to be
kissed.
The last story about Paul is my favorite!!!!!!! A young lady has recently been living on the
island. She came quite a while ago straight from Alaska with the most
marvelous huge Alaskan dog named Sarah Palin!.
One day a total stranger appeared ,walked up to the Club
House where our blessed Jim Bitler was sweeping off the porch.
The stranger said
“Oh Sir I've been told that Paul Mitchell and Sarah Palin are here on
the island!!!!!!”
Jim never looked up from his sweeping and said over his
shoulder “Yeah they are together
most of the time. Just now they
are out playing in the
marsh.”
