  1. (continued from previous page)
    10 When the smoke from the chimney goes up straight good weather is to follow but if it descends to the ground rain is to follow.
    11. When far-away bells can be heard ringing rain is to come.
    12. If the robin stays low down in a hedge in early morning the day will likely be wet, but if she moves on top of the hedge in the morning a good day will follow.
