  1. An old thermometer.
    There is an very old thermometer in our school. It is a long glass tube with greenish fluid in it and a small insect in it also. It was collected by Patty Kealey who got it from Mr. Jim Miggin, Kildalkey.

  2. I got an old pewter plate from Miss Byrne Kiladalkey and she got it from her uncle who was Michael Cleary. He got it from his mother and it is over 100 years of age. The old people did not use those plates for eating food. They had them on the dresser for ornaments.
