- (continued from previous page)The fairs held in Listowel are held in the street and in the square. A penny each is paid for pigs and sixpence for every cow.
When an animal is sold "luck" is given in money and is called "luck money".
When a bargain is made the parties concerned show their agreement by hitting the animal on the back. When an animal is sold the halter is kept.- Collector
