![General Report of the Schools (Boys). At Mr. Gedge’s request I examined this School in Scripture and Church Catechism on Thursday March 4th. As it was my first experience in examination, beyond that of my own parish, I felt a diffidence and difficulty in it. Yet, I must add, the order, brightness, and intelligence of the boys (219 present) gave me great encourage¬ ment. I have now pleasure in testifying to the great eare and pains that must have been bestowed by the Teachers in their work. The Church Catechism was especially striking. I may also name that the written questions which I gave were for the most part neatly and carefully answered, some very much so. J. R. CHARLE3WORTH, for Diocesan Inspector.
