Details: JOHN HAMPTON CHRISTISON, Vigneron, Aberbrothock, was born and reared in Brechin, Scotland, in 1858, and educated in Edinburgh. On leaving school he went to sea, but a few years later left his ship in Australia and entered a mercantile house. He subsequently commenced teaching dancing and gymnastics, and after a good many ups and downs went to Europe to perfect himself in these branches. Whilst in France and Germany he MAITLAND. became greatly interested in sericulture, and on his return to Australia in 1883 bought the property he now occupies and commenced vine-growing. His is one of the largest vineyards in the Lower Hunter district, comprising forty acres of vines, besides about six acres of other fruits and sixty acres of grazing land. Our subject is putting in practice all the recent improvements seen by him in Europe, both in the cultivation of the vine and the manufacture of wine. He bought one of the largest stills in the colony, it being that for which Mr. G. M. Meyers received the first prize at the Sydney International Exhibition in 1879; and he has introduced the new German press, which possesses great advantages over those generally used. He is also building an extensive stone cellar for the storage of wine and is pulling up his old vines (which are spaced at 6ft. x 6in.) and planting fresh ones at spaces of 8ft. x 8in., thus preparing to carry into the wine manufacture the most modern improvements. Mr. Christison was married in 1880, and has four children living
