  1. (continued from previous page)
    name was Brady. The dying man said "Here is the money for you, you acted nobly now you are paid for all, so Good bye and don't forget me."

  2. The savage loves his native home.
    The day of the wind is not the day of the scallops.
    Two heads are wiser than one.
    Better late than never.
    After a storm comes a calm.
    The truth is often bitter.
    It is a a bad wind that does not blow someone good.
    Work is better than talk.
    The hills are green far away.
    Time and tide waits for no man.
    Rolling stones gather no moss.
    Wilful waste brings woeful want.
    Health is better than wealth.
    When the cat is out the mice can play.
    No place like home.
