- There was a hedge-school in Ahane Killengarriff. The master's name was James Moloney and he taught English, Sums, Writing, Grammar and Geography. There was no blackboard or no desks but the master had a big slate on which he used to write what he was teaching. This school was on the side of a country by-road in a little house. There were two classes one in the day one in the night. The big boys and girls went in the night and the younger boys and girls went in the day. Each child that went to the school had to pay 10s a year.
