Details: Mr. Colin Christie a former Mayor of the city and who has been identified with its movements since 1849 when he settled in Newcastle said that to his own recollections and from what he had learned from the very early settlers the site of the old markets was never a part of the cathedral cemetery.....The site where the Newcastle School of Arts stands (in 1915) was once a blacks camp and it was also the location of Newcastles original pound. Speaking of 1849, Mr. Christie said that the fence was then standing though the place was not in use as a pound. He was aware that blacks had been buried on the spot where the borough Markets were built many years later but he had never heard of it having been used as a burying ground for white people

Details: COLIN CHRISTIE, proprietor of the Lyceum, was born in Newburgh, Fifeshire, Scotland, in 1836, and carne out with his parents to Newcastle in 1849. He passed many years engaged in pastoral and mining pursuits, in acquiring a practical knowledge of shoemaking, and in visiting the goldfields of New Zealand, but finally turned his attention to music, in which he is naturally gifted. He settled in Newcastle, established a private band, composed of members of his own family, and in 1877 purchased the City Hall, where he has ever since held his day and evening classes for the study of music and dancing. He is the teacher of phonography under the Technical Board of New South Wales, and during the last three years has been eminently successful, sending up at last year s examination six pupils, who all obtained the award of merit, two of them having secured the highest honors. Mr. Christie was alderman of Honeysuckle Ward in 1867, and has since been twice elected for the city. He has always been an advocate for sanitary reform, and has been energetic in favor of the Council s rendering ample compensation for injuries received by persons in its service or by its neglect. He also advocated the introduction of concrete guttering, such as is now successfully adopted in Newcastle. He is married, and is the father of eight sons and five daughters
