Years later, my brother and I tried to follow him.

"Everybody and his brother will be trying to move in."

She went out, where her brother was trying to carry water.

Perhaps this was what his brother had been trying to suggest to her.

"Also, it is possible that your brother with a problem tried to call."

"But now, everybody and his brother is down there trying to do the same thing."

Few years back my brother tried to get one installed.

Off hours, the brothers would get together and try to write.

You think your brother wouldn't try to keep this for himself?

"I guess my brother tried to put up a fight."
