  1. An Scoil
    My story about the school is one my father told me. He told me that there was a house in the school yard and the school was a Chaple. And the priest that used to say Mass in it stayed in the yards house in the yard. And when the priest died the man who lived in the house had very bad luck. And his wife and children died. And then prepared to go to England. And he went up in the room and brought down the bottom of a cane and what fell out of it put the chales. And in the morning the man brought it to the priest.
