One time Puxley sent his rent collectors out collecting the rent. While they were collecting it they met a man from Clounaglaskin and they asked him for his rent. He said he had no rent to pay unless he would pay them with a few cattle. When they went back to Puxley they told him about it. He agreed to get some cattle in payment for the rent.
