Piglet's famous grandfather, who must have been dreadfully important as
Piglet sets himself about telling
Pooh about Trespassers W as they search for the unfindable Woozle (who incidentally enjoy being in company with Wizzles).
The Piglet lived in a very grand house in the middle of a beech-tree, and the beech-tree was in the middle of the forest, and the Piglet lived in the middle of the house. Next to his house was a piece of broken board which had: "TRESPASSERS W" on it. When Christopher Robin asked the Piglet what it meant, he said it was his grandfather's
name, and had been in the
family for a long
time. Christopher Robin said you couldn't be called Trespassers W, and Piglet said
yes, you could, because his grandfather was, and it was short for Trespassers Will, which was short for Trespassers William. And his grandfather had had two names in case he
lost one—Trespassers after an
uncle, and William after Trespassers.
"I've got two names," said Christopher Robin carelessly.
"Well, there you are, that proves it," said Piglet.
