- There was an old hedge school in our garden. He was a master that taught the children. His name was Mc. Gilligan. They children always wrote with quills. The books were handwritten. The teacher only had ten shillings a week and they did not stay long in the District they would only stay about a month each. At night the teacher would stay in some house.
