- (continued from previous page)to the City. There is no toll paid in Coachford but the owners of yards charge for holding cattle.
When the beasts are purchased the buyer gives a docket to the seller, which he again presents to the buyer when he is demanding payment.
The mark they make on the cattle when sold is to put a cut of a scissors on the hip or a sign of paint or a blue chalk mark. When they would have their cattle sold they would sometimes make a mark by mud, they would take a piece of mud off of the ground and put it on the cattle.
When people sell a young colt they leave the halter go with him.- Collector
