- (continued from previous page)A good run is better than a bad stand.
A straight tree may have crooked roots.
Keep not what is not your own.
Dead with tea and dead without it.
A shameless 'pray' is a shameless nay.
Dream of the dead and you'll hear from the living.
Work is better than talk.
A slow hound is often lucky.
Merit alone is worthy of love. - A stitch in time saves nine.
Once lost never regained.
A marked horse kicks his heels the highest.
A sure one is better than an insure two.
Try to get more and you lose it all.
What's got easy, goes easy.
Just is never it.
Once seen never forgotten.
Kind hearts are more than coronets.
It's a fool would fall out with his neighbour.(continues on next page)- Informant
