    When the soot falls.
    When the dust rises off the road with the wind.

    Old Schools.
    I never heard of any hedge school in my district. There was a school held in a out house in Lackan, , the house is still to be seen. There was a lady teaching from Cloonacilleg and she used to come over in the morning and go home in the evening.
    I do not know how they were paid or what subjects they taught, or was Irish spoken.
