Talk:Socialist Sunday School

Untitled
"There are differences of opinion on who set up the first Socialist Sunday School. An article on Glasgow Calendonian University's website claims that the first was created by Trade Unionist Tom Anderson in 1894. http://www.gcal.ac.uk/radicalglasgow/chapters/tom_anderson.html"

This is false Mary Gray set up her first school in 1892 (See Justice). She did so as a continuation of feeding local children for several years. The first school in Glaschu began in 1897, and Tom Anderson did not set up his at South Side School until 1898 (See Clarion & Labour Leader)

I removed this comment from the main page and placed it here, as it was confusing and not relevant at that certain point of the article. If someone wants to integrate it, please do so.

Does anybody have access to the original text? The tense of the verb 'nourished' at the end of Verse 2 seems inconsistent. Would it not have been 'nourishes' or 'nourisheth'? I am also slightly unsure of the verb 'tried' in Verse 4. Would this maybe have been 'tries'? MikeVader (talk) 10:52, 4 July 2008 (UTC)

I am slightly dubious as to the stated reasons as to Mary Gray's setting up the Sunday School. She was from Battersea and the Dock strike kids would have been Eastenders.
