  1. (continued from previous page)
    hedge school between Carrickboy and Kickmount. The master's name was Lawlor. He used to teach English reading, English writing, and little arithmetic. The master used to teach in a little hut and it was so low that you could not see the house from the road but you could hear the noise of the children.
