“Well, I don't really know yet,” said Mr. Zuckerman. “But we have received a sign, Edith—a mysterious sign.
A miracle has happened on this farm. There is a large spider's web in the doorway of the barn cellar,
right over the pigpen, and when Lurvy went to feed the pig this morning, he noticed the web because it was foggy,
and you know how a spider's web looks very distinct in a fog. And right spang in the middle of the web there were the words ‘Some Pig.’
The words were woven right into the web. They were actually part of the web, Edith.
I know, because I have been down there and seen them. It says, ‘Some Pig,’ just as clear as clear can be.
There can be no mistake about it. A miracle has happened and a sign has occurred here on earth, right on our farm, and we have no ordinary pig.”
“Well,” said Mrs. Zuckerman, “it seems to me you're a little off. It seems to me we have no ordinary spider.”
“Oh, no,” said Zuckerman. “It's the pig that's unusual. It says so, right there in the middle of the web.”
“Maybe so,” said Mrs. Zuckerman. “Just the same, I intend to have a look at that spider.”
“It's just a common grey spider,” said Zuckerman. They got up, and together they walked down to Wilbur's yard.
“You see, Edith? It's just a common grey spider.” Wilbur was pleased to receive so much attention.
