   Roinn Roinn Postáil

   I went to Jimmy Broderick's hedge-school an Clomantagh Mount Garettt. We had three books "Reading Made Easy" Single Spelling Book" "Double Spelling Book". We also learned to write on copy books. We wrote with the book on our knees, with Quill pens. The master used to make the pens for us. The big lads wrote at a table. I was about nine years when I left him. We paid 1½d a week end. If we were 'ere a day absent we kept back a ½d.

   This old woman has several of the proverbs she learned from the books above quoted.

   When I was a servant boy at Julians of Kyle (now Brennans) Jim Doran taught a night school there for two winters to the farmers sons. Because I was only the servant boy I wasn't let into the class [Note This would have been about 75 years ago]
