Mr Mighty är en mindre karaktär i den ursprungliga Anansi källhistorier , särskilt historia # 4 ; "Tiger's Sheep Suit".
Herr Mighty är karakteriserad som en rik och kraftfull (men dum) jordägare med en betydande lanthållning. Anansi arbetar för honom och stjäler gradvis allt hans får och ramar sedan sin vän Tiger som tjuven, och samlar både belöningen för tjuvens fångst liksom händer till landets ägares dotter:
"Anansi was a head-man for a man by the name of Mr. Mighty, who employed Anansi for the purpose of minding some sheep. The sheep numbered about two thousand. And from the first day Anansi took over the sheep, the man began to miss one. An' he steal them until he leave only one. Well, Mr. Mighty would like to find out how the sheep go. He say to Anansi he would give his best daughter and two hundred pound to find out how the sheep go.
Anansi say the best way to find it out is to make a ball. Anansi have a friend name of Tiger, call him 'Brar Tiger'. He went to Tiger an' tell him Mr. Mighty promise to give his daughter an' two hundred pound to whomsoever tell how the sheep go.
... [later at the ball]
Mr. Mighty got right up an' said to Tiger, "Yes, that is the man what steal all my sheep!" Tiger say, "No!!" Anansi say, "Yes, that is the man what steal all the sheep, an' I an' that man eatin' an' I didn't know that man was such a t'ief!" An' Tiger was arrested an' got ten years in prison, an' Anansi get the two hundred pounds an' the best daughter to marry to.
