- (continued from previous page)there is an old school in what is known as Ballyellis. People never remember the names of the teachers, as I suppose they were strangers. They did the writing on slates, because in those years England ruled them. Also very little Irish was spoken.
There is another old school in Askamore. The education was reading, writing, sums, subtraction, and other classes of schoolwork. A Land League was held there years ago. But now the Protestants have it for holding meetings. The people do not like it so well.
