    Share Share Post
    John Croke was a great hedge -school master. He taught a little school in Frankfort at the side of Cairon. He taught English, Aritmetic, Geography and History. He was paid by the parent of the children whom he taught and was kept in the houses. The remains of the school are yet to be seen.
