  1. (continued from previous page)
    At every fair at the present day tolls are paid if the cattle are sold. The halter used for tying the animal is not given away to the buyer.
    The owner of the animal purchases a halter and goes with the animal to the buyer. Long ago a fair was held in Kilmeedy but it was considered that the village was too small so it is no longer held there.
