Tossolo probably got its name from its resemblance to a silver cup, tasae de Pargent. Sources of many names are last in time; they are related to a person, happening or emotion that prompted s. name that has stuck through the decades, Plctureeque Names Some of these would be Break- heart Point, Exploits, Godfather Island. Happy Adventure, Seldom- Come-By, Come-By-Chance, Wreck Point and Heart's Delight. Near the last named are‘ Heart's De- sire. Heart's Content and Little Heart's Ease. All on Conception Bey, flier hamlets are- sheltered from the main brunt of the sea. Who knows what might have happened to Joe Batt long ago for a fishing village on Fogo Island to be called Joe Betta Arm? Did Joe lose an arm in an accident on a ship? Most likely not. Ho pro- babiy found or fished in sir arm of sea and thus the name. In tire days of the "fishing admirals," Devon and Dorset fish- ermen escaped and many hid on s rocky hill near Conception Bay until their ships had sailed for home. Newfoundlanders still have their Runaway Rock. ‘rhere are at least 1M0 terms of speech peculiar to Newfoundland Most of them had to do with the ‘sea and ships originally and have been carried over into com- mon usage. A braggart. for instance, is an "October, Gailer." This nickname was given to the garrulous fisher- men arriving home from Labrador in October, a. month later than most of his neighbors. Be could thus spin wild tales that no one could contradict. A grave is a "long-home," grumbling is “muliygrubsfl and is "pig before thunder" and flattery is "plawmosh." Hesitancy is "scrimshanklni." A good man is "as fine a man as ever hove a gailus over his shoulder" and a thiefls "an honest man when there's only anchors on the shore."
