    Arithmetic on slates and they had to do English writing on them also. They had slate pencils for writing on the slates. The lessons were taught during the week and mass was read there every Sunday. The chapel is there at the present day. There was once a class held in an old house that belonged to the O'Briens of Poulacarron, the house was near Poulawack. The class lasted only two days because the house was burned, the ruins can still be seen there.
