  1. Some fifty years ago there was an old thatched school in Ballinlass. Mr Corliss was the teacher there. There was an average of 50 pupils coming to it. It was under the National Board but still it was of the old types.
    In Lisheeneheilcia there was a school of the same kind. The teacher was Mr Comer. It was also used as a polling booth and the people still vote there instead of at the school.
