   Over a hundred years ago there was a teacher who used to teach in Uragh. His name was McGowan but they called him Jack-o-the-Bog. He used to teach in the fields and byres and in all the backward places. The people kept him in clothes and tobacco. He used to stay in one house one night and another house the next night. They had no lead pencils in those days. They had to write with slate pencils and slates. The master had a big slate for a black-board with a wooden framem round it. They had no seats but blocks of wood. The master was very clever he was from Mayo. He taught the children how to write, read and spell. He also taught the boys Latin and how to write to a Priest or a Doctor or any body.

They used to write mostly on slates except very seldom they used to write on paper and when they did they made pens from the feathers of fowl. The seats they used to sit on
