Graham, Arthur

Graham, Arthur, Bookseller and Stationer, Karangahape Road, Auckland. Mr. Graham was born in Westmoreland, England, in 1851, and accompanied his parents to Auckland at an early age; his father, the late Mr. John Graham, was for many years relieving-officer in Auckland. The subject under notice inherited his military tastes from his father, who was engaged during the Maori war with an old ride corps known as the Remuera Rifles. In the year 1893 Mr. Graham was offered and accepted the position of Captain of the Ponsonby Artillery, and he held it for several years. He has been closely connected with Volunteer movements for a number of years, and in shooting and rowing has always taken a keen interest.
