Photograph – Northern Ireland Historical Photographic Society “The former St. Malachy’s Convent of Mercy sits at the corner of Sussex Place and Joy Street within Belfast’s Linen Conservation Area. The building was designed by Alexander McAlister and built by J & J Guiler between 1878 – 1880 for the Sisters of the Convent of Mercy. It is a symmetrical three-bay red brick Venetian Gothic-styled building, B1 listed in March 1988 (Ref: HB26\/30\/024 A). By 1901 the convent had been renamed St. Joseph’s Convent of Mercy. The Sisters of Mercy occupied the convent until 1969 when only two nuns still resided within the building. The convent was closed, initially for a trial period, during the summer months when the adjacent school was not used. The Sisters of Mercy relocated to the Crumlin Road the convent was not occupied again until 1983, this time by the Good Shepherd Sisters. The convent again fell out of use in more recent years and in 2008 the Ulster Architectural Heritage Society classified it as a ‘building at risk’.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Intermediate Education Examinations<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n We have received from the Intermediate Education Beard the official list, issued yesterday, of the results of the examinations held in 1880. The list contains the names of students who have obtained exhibitions and prizes, as also of those who have simply passed, together with the number of marks awarded. The names of exhibitioners and prize-takers have already appeared in our columns, and we now annex the names of those in our district who have passed in two or more divisions, one at least of these being the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, or 5th. <sic><\/p>\n\n\n\n Girls – Junior Grade<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Marion GALLAHER, Ladies School, Gordonville, Coleraine Girls – Middle Grade<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Elizabeth GRAHAM, Ladies Collegiate School, Belfast Girls – Senior Grade<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n F.
