were taken as prisoners of war by the Japanese. They told their cousin (
who lives in the States) about their adventures and how each time the

6789 Most of the information I have on Peter is from a write up in the local newspaper after his death. He did most of his training, as a gardener, at Wallhouse and held posts at Tyninghame Gardens, the home of the Earl of Haddington, and other posts.

He set up his own business, as a nursery gardener, at Morningside, Edinburgh in about 1887. Aproximately 10 years later he moved to Ballencrief nursery where he continued until his death.
He was famous for his growing of Alpines. It was said that "Amongst his Alpines, Peter was at home. He handled them and looked on them as a lover looks on the charms of his mistress." He won many medals at all the big shows. The Kirkton Public Bowling Greens, Bathgate, were laid out by him. Regularly asked to be a judge at local shows. Peter was a very quiet and modest man.

James Aitken Smith, in 2006, remembers his house at Ballencrief Nursery and described it thus; "The house at Ballencrieff Nursery looks , from the gate, back to front as the back of the house is facing you. The original intention had been to have the entrance on the hill road, where the gate of 'Sunniside' now is. Instead the present entrance on the Gateshields road was opened. The house had a scullery , large kitchen with 2 built-in beds, 2 bedrooms and large lounge, 'The big room'. Half of the loft was an attic which was where the boys slept. The rest was open space. The toilet was a dry closet and water came from a spring on the hill above, to an outside tap, which had branches to the greenhouse and washouse. Cooking was on a range in the kitchen. It had the usual oven on one side of the fire, but on the other was a boiler which had to be filled with pails carried from the outside. At least it had a tap which meant there was a supply of hot water for face, hand and dish washing. Baths were had in the washouse. Lighting was by oil lampalthough for as long as I knew the house it was the more advanced Tilley lamp which has a mantle and uses paraffin vapourised under pressure.
He grew many different plants. The one most associated with his name was the Gentian, especially Gentian Acaulis, the spring flowering blue trumpet variety.
In a catalogue he was advertising small Gentian Acaulis at 9d in 3" pots. However the rarer Acualis Alba was 7/6d. This would equate to about 30 pounds at todays prices.
Peter showed his wares at not only local shows like Linlithgow, and Falkirk, but also nationally at Waverly Market, Edinburgh, and Kelvin Hall, Glasgow.
His other big interest was fiddle and Scots music. being an accomplished violin player and along with his pianist daughter, Bethia, many a Saturday evening parlor concert was held.

6798 Mr Maddern was the recipient of a hero's welcome in Kyneton back in 1944 when he returned from action as Private Maddern, exactly four years after he had left a Australia on November 17, 1940.
He was one of 385 prisoners of war who escaped from Italian prison camps and with two friends made their way over the Alps into Switzerland.
"The journey was a hazardous one", records the Kyneton Guardian of the day, "dependent for food upon the kindness of Italian women and girls shunning men lest they be Fascist and German Sympathisers".
Private Maddern fought the Palestine, Tobruk and Benghazi before being taken a prisoner of war in May 1941.
He was imprisoned at a work camp in North Africa for eight months before being transferred to Italy.
Here he was quarantined for a month before spending a further six months in the notorious PG 57, said to be among the worst camps of the war.
The POW's of the camp worked in rice-fields till the Italian armistice the Private Maddern crosses the Alps into Switzerland with two mates.
During their 46 day journey, the men lived on potatoes and chestnuts an dodging Germans and their machine guns.
The Kyneton Guardian of 1944 records that the men "had many thrilling adventures in the Alps before reaching the Swiss border".
"They had a map but as they had to keep off the main roads for fear of Germans they found it not much use".
"They had no compass and found the going terribly rough and difficult.
Later they were repatriated to Port Sais, down to Suez to Bombay and then Australia and home".
According to Guardian reports, Private Maddern's homecoming prompted plenty of celebration and excitement in Kyneton with most of the towns inhabitants assembled at the railway station to greet him.
