Death
. .
Sneeze twice when you first get up, and you will hear of a death before night.
If a dog howls under the window, it foreshadows death in the household.
“There was a dog went and howled under the window of a house up near where I lived. He howled and howled; and they drove him off, but no sooner done it than he was right back again. And in two or three days an old lady that lived there died.”
Make your own wedding-dress, and you will not live to wear it out.
When the rain falls in an open grave, it is a sign there will be another death in the same family before the year is out.
Many people are troubled by this saying when the funeral of a friend occurs on a rainy day.
