Fort Worth gazette. [volume] (Fort Worth, Tex.) 1891-1898, 1891-07-26

And it is everywhere in Scotland as in
suspicious for the brides mother to be
present At wedding as it is unfortunate in
our country to have the same individual
arrive to remain
AT ANY SUE 7EQUENT PERIOD.
As with the Irish the Scottish people have
some very Interesting and occasionally
mournful folklore and superstitions re-
garding birds and fowls. The song of the
robin BODIES i'll to any sick person who hears
it. robin seen sitting upon stone fore
tells the falling of snow. \ black cock is
highly priced, as its presence prevents the
ravages of bogies and warlocks. To hear
cockoo cry before breakfast is an i'll omen.
1t is fortunate for q housewife if a brood
of chickens all come off the nest cock birds,
as 1t is indicative of coming prosperity.
The magpie is a particularly ominOus bird
to the Scotch.
One is sorrow: two mirth:
Three, wedding; four, birth;
Five, heaven; six. hell
Seven the dill ain SELL
The entrance of the thrush, any of the
family of hncheS, or the little ox-eye tit
into the open window or door OF house, is
an omen that anyone i'll within will regain
health, and, if all are in good health, that
some pleasant good fortune is in store for
the household When the startling ceases
to follow the grazing cattle some witch
spell is being wrought upon them; and if
the raven hover near cattle or sheep ''elf-
shooting" is very likely to occur. When
the robin will not sing in graveyard trees.
the place is held in unusual dread; and if
you will keep the white hair you will find
under your foot when you hear the first
notes of the cuckoo in the springtime, the
next name you hear spoken is Of the one
you will haply wed.
Death tokens and funeral tokens are very
numerous. When abroad at night, one
should never turn about on hearing foot
steps. They are likely to be those of the
dead who are seeking human companion
ship. The bowling of a dog with its head
toward the house for near and away from
the house for distant relative, or beneath,
