Here the school-master cooked potatoes, and usually herring. Reading, and Spelling were taught in English here. There was no blackboard, and the seats were simply stones with a sod in each, and arranged around by the wall. Scholars had to pay about two pence per week. Work began about ten o'clock, and there was a half-hour break during the day. The master had a rod, but he never made much use of it.

Some of the pupils who attended here were, Patrick O'Sullivan, Johnny Leary, James Leary, and three or four sons of Colemans.
