Notes by William Woodlock on Dublin Magistrates and Legal Matters
Part of Irish Capuchin Archives
Notes seemingly compiled by William Woodlock on matters pertaining to the reform of the Dublin Police and the Court Magistracy service. Some of the notes refer to more general legal matters and to extracts from historical state papers regarding procedures for the appointments of Irish judges and magistrates. Some of the notes take the form of letters. An extract from one of the letters reads ‘The Dublin Police District, besides the city of Dublin proper, comprises the large and daily increasing suburbs of Rathmines, Rathgar, Kingstown, Dalkey, Killiney, and the Pembroke Township. Rathmines and Rathgar in reality form a city of themselves: Kingstown, I need scarcely say is a seaport of some importance, and one of the most frequented gathering places, if not the most frequented watering place in Ireland’. The letters contain recitations and extracts from various Acts of Parliament relating to the administration of the magistracy and courts system in Dublin.

Part of Irish Capuchin Archives
Some notes about education in the hand of Patrick Pearse. The notes are undated but were possibly prepared a talk on the subject. The notes conclude with Pearse's transcription of a widely-known poem on public schooling which reads:
‘Ram it in, cram it in
Children’s heads are hollow.
Jam it in, slam it in,
Still there’s more to follow.
Pack it in, smack it in,
What are children made for?
Push it in, crush it in,
What are teachers paid for?’
