The students loved Wilfrid Harrington

You mention Wilfrid Harrington in your piece in The Irish Times on Saturday.

Everything you said about Wilf is true. An amazing man and a great example to follow. 

When I came to Tallaght in 1959 he was sub master. His typewriter could be heard right up to 22.00 when it was lights-out in student quarters and he would cease  writing.

The students loved him.

Kindest regards,
Edward Walsh
