   In the townland of Enagh where I live there are ruins of a school. It was built in 1828 by the landlord of this district, his name was Scott. People sent their children, both Catholics and Protestants there from Virginia and Oldcastle to be educated. The school-master was Protestant, teaching for a very little salary.
   It is not known where he came from. He used to teach the pupils Protestant doctrines. The landlord pretended to be very charitable, he used to supply the poor children with clothing.
