Hay quien dice que Pepe Moreno Vallejo, el cordelero de la Concepción Jerónima, es primo hermano de D. Manuel Moreno-Isla, uno de los Morenos que atan perros con longaniza; y se dice que un Arnaiz, empleado de poco sueldo, es pariente de Barbarita.

Some say that Pepe Moreno Vallejo, the ropemaker of Concepción Jerónima, is the first cousin of D. Manuel Moreno-Isla, one of the Morenos who tie dogs with sausages; and it is said that an Arnaiz, a low-paid employee, is related to Barbarita.
- Atar perros con longanizas -Tie dogs with sausages: a phrase still used today to mock excess or absurd wealth.
