The picture shows four women (l to r): Bee Cafferkey, Ciss Byrne, Nina Carlos and Rita Carlos, with a hill in the background. Some are wearing overcoats (one belted) with hats and a cap. It appears that they were out hill walking and were known as ‘The Hillsiders’.
Bee (Bridget) Cafferkey won a Mayo County Council Scholarship in 1918 and came to University College Galway. She did Arts, obtaining high grades in the 1st Arts Examinations in Summer 1919. She took French as a BA Subsidiary subject in 1920. She obtained a 1st Class Honours BA Degree in Irish and in English in the autumn of 1921.
