Wednesday, as he checked in all his records, he handed an unused accident report form to Postmaster Enos Boyd. "I've had ibis for years?and am glad I nev er needed to use it. The envelope i ihowed signs of having been in the ?arrlcr's care for a number of .ear*. Minett plans to take things easy" for a while, then go to Mis .isslppi for a visit with First I-t. ind Mr*. Cyril Minett, Jr.. and heir son "I hope to get a chance to fly in ionic of those late model Jets." nused the former member of the innervation squadron with the Air ?'orce. "I want to fly a little?am ired of driving." Minett has met with many in eresting experiences as a mail arrier -some pleasant, some oth irwtae. Carrying messages report ng the death or that a son was nissing In World War II was miong his hardest jobs. Once he discovered a house or) Ire in Stanley Cove, and rushed in o gel out a family of six, who were maw ate of their danger. In 1940 >e was stranded by the floods at .'lytic. and did not get back to the iff ice until late at nigju He has been in snow 1(> inches lecp, and the coldest was two bc ow Zero. In March 1936 he had to detour round a gap In Stamey Cove for hree weeks because of the hanked now drifts. Once he stopped to put mail in a iox, and heard someone calling, lid learned that a family of six iere very sick with flu, and need (1 a doctor He got them one. since to member of the family was able o be up The nearest Minett ever came to laving a wreck, was when a wo nan with eigfit children in her ar ran into him as he wa.<i pul ing mail into a box. His car was illed with Christmas mail De ember 23. Minett would not venture a guess * to how many love letters he has | lellvvred, but said it was almost a laily Incident to have a young man >r woman standing at a mailbox vailing for that "special letter", to can often tell by the expres ions on their faces what they ex >ect, and sometimes the perfume if the letters U a dead giveaway. One man got rather bitter be muse of a letter delivered to his hix The letter was- from some one ither than the man's wile ?nrl iiw. nun <1W not want It to conic to the amity box Mi net t had no alter lativc except to deliver the mail as iddrcssed. and it happened that he man's wife got to the mail box I rat. A standard question, is "where is ny olieck"" A lot of people get checks regu arly from one source or another, md If perchance they are a day or wo late, they always ask the car- ' ier about the delayed letter Mail carriers have to lie pretty [ood detectives, especially when it 'onies to distinguishing people with he same name. For example. Mln- | ?It has three people 011 his route by h-.> name of Hubert Franklin, and hrec others with the name .lack ilcCracken. Minett started out the first day s Ith the late F. A, Hurgin, In a >uggv. to learn the route, Later ic took over the route of the late l\ L. Bramlett, when he retired One of the oddest deliveries J dinett made in his 28 years was a wo-horse wagon. Bark years ago. here was not a limit as to size >r weight of' parcel post items as here Is today. The wagon was flipped by parcel post, and Min ?tt carried it out piece by piece ?' . ...Is 1 -1 . ?? ? - -- . ? uay, men pari ot tne >ody, until he Rot it all delivered. I About the worst package he ewr landlcd was a bundle of skunk lides shipped by a trapper. The odor remained In his car j or months The retired carrier figures he I ias lost $1 50 monthly in loans for .mall items such as stamps and j ?ard.s. One woman was loaned $8 or a COD shipment of baby chicks j with a promise to pay the next day iVhen the carrier Rot to her home he next day she had moved?tak-l lng the chicks with her. , Minett is a native of Vermont He served four years in the Can-'; iidian Army. durinR World War I is an engineer. In 1920 he joined the U. S, Army as a member of an ' observation squadron of the Air; Force, stationed at Ran Francisco. He was in service two years, three) months, and when taken ill. was sent to Otecn. where he remained until coming to Waynesville. Mrs Minett is a native'of Bryson City. Minett slowly folded up a leath er pouch he has used for 20 years, and gave a glancing look at the row of pigeon holes where he has stuffed mail for rural patrons for 28 years. The 678 families on his route will now be served by Bill Plott who Is taking over Route No. 3, and James Fie Is taking over route one. ^ Yahoo!
