    a pig and three pence for cattle. Mr Rothwell gathers the custom in Ballinasloe. When a man buys a horse he puts a mark on him with a scissor or chalk. In olden days a fair was held in Kiltormer but not now. In the finish of a bargain some person steps in and divides the difference between them.
