    Toll is paid in every fair on Rathdowney in Templemore and in one fair in Thurles. In the fair greens in Kilkenny the toll is paid to the corperation. On each road leading out from the town there is a board which is called the custom board, and the custom charge is written on it. When a beast is sold or bought luck money is given according to the value of the animal.
