    Proverb from Story
    25th October 1937
    I often heard Mrs. Hughes of Weaver Square, Baltinglass, tell the following story about a wealthy farmer who some years ago, lived near Baltinglass and owned a farm now belonging to Mr Dan Keogh.
    Mr. Brown as was his name, had a large herd of cattle grazing on the fields of the farm and his faithful servant always took care of them for him.
