    (continued from previous page)
    Every household did their best to have the money every year to pay the tithes or if they had not the money their cattle would be taken by the bailiff and if they had no cattle they would be evicted and then they would camp out on the side of the road. Sometimes the Landlord might take them back to their land again if that family did not miss any year before without paying it.
