His original intention was to establish five grammar schools, but, in order to guarantee better salaries for the teachers and provide clothes for the existing pupils, decided to open only three, at Drogheda, Galway and Tipperary. Under the charter these had to be free schools for twenty poor children, (to be named by the founders or governors), dwelling within two miles of the school, as well as for all the tenants of Erasmus Smith. They were to be instructed in writing and 'casting accounts,' Latin, Greek and Hebrew, and if so desired, to be prepared for university."?Public Record Office of Northern Ireland.

[CROCKER (John Wilson)]
The Battles of Talavera. A Poem.
Second edition, [ii], 39, [1]pp., recent marbled boards. A heroic poem about the bloody but inconclusive battle at Talavera, southwest of Madrid (July 27-28, 1809), in which a combined British-Spanish force under Sir Arthur Wellesley (later Duke of Wellington) forced the French army of King Joseph Bonaparte, brother of Napoleon, to withdraw from field. The author, John Wilson Croker, was a high-Tory politician and man of letters, one of the founders of the legendary Quarterly Review and for nearly thirty years its primary contributor. Wellington himself singled out this poem for praise. Surprisingly uncommon: we find no copy of the first or this second edition, Copac locates the third and later editions only.
