A Bush Christening
(詳細はAustralian writer and poet Andrew Barton "Banjo" Paterson. It was first published in ''The Bulletin'' magazine on 16 December 1893, the Christmas issue of that publication.〔(Austlit - "A Bush Christening" by A. B. Paterson )〕 It has been called "a rollicking account of how the traditional pre-occupations, whisky and religion, come together".〔The Oxford Companion to Australian Literature, 2nd edition, p136〕
==Plot summary==

Michael Magee is the father of a ten-year-old boy who has never been christened. Magee lives "On the outer Barcoo where the churches are few," and rarely sees a clergyman. By chance a priest passes by one day and he and Magee decide to christen the boy as soon as possible. The boy overhears the conversation, and, thinking that a "christening" is rather like the branding of cattle, decides to make a run for it. The priest chases after him but seeing that he has no chance of catching the runaway flings a flask of Maginnis's whisky which hits the boy on the head. Thereafter the boy is known as "Maginnis".〔
