  1. (continued from previous page)
    They used to do the maps of Ireland, England, Scotland, Europe and sometimes the map of te World. The master used to draw the map on the board for them as he does now. They used to have geographies and he used to show them the rivers and towns on the map
    They used to sweep the school on the turns not in the evening but in the morning before the lessons used to begin. At half-past three they used to go home.
