## Definition

Earlier levy that Lauer (= tanners, leatherworkers; tanner) had to pay for the use of water from streams, especially for diverting the water to fill the tanning pit. As a rule, the Weissgerber (also: Löscher, Erchmacher, Rössler = tanners of horse hides; tawer) were charged the same fee. - See Dechergeld.
