    in Ireland about the time of the Penal Laws.
    The teachers used to teach under hedges or in barns, or any place they could get shelter, and the boo they used to use was the Premier, and they had no pens, or pencils, or books like they have nowadays and the kind of copies they had was slates, and slate pensils not like the kind they have now.
