  1. (2) I could only find out about two schools in this locality, both were in Farraniharpy. One was in a barn and taught by a man named Mr. John Coulter, a protestant. The place now belongs to Mrs Morrison. This teacher afterwards taught in an old barn belonging to a man named Davis;
    (Grandfather to the present owner)
    He had very few pupils in his own school although the two places were scarcely a quarter of a mile apart. A man named Michael Boland succeeded him and taught until Doonflin school was built in 1865.
