• In July 1931 Percy Guy wrote this poem about Jack and Eliza White's fated honeymoon flight.
  
  To Jacky and Wife
  With happy smiles they bade farewell
  To friends that afternoon
  Ere they stepped in an aeorplane
  To spend their honeymoon.
  
  But elements beyond control
  Of human hand and mind.
  They intervened unhearalded
  To prove a fate unkind.
  
  The aeroplane had gone aloft
  Just o'er the tree tops there
  When suddenly it swerved and fell
  A wreck beyond repair.
  
  Its human freight in wreckage lay
  Their faces screened with blood,
  To meet the gaze of anxious friends
  Who heard the sickening thud.
  
  Tho' they are injured painfully,
  May they recover soon,
  And in the future both enjoy
  One lifelong honeymoon

(of Toowoomba), James Symes (storekeeper), and W. H. Carlile (saddler). Fortunately there was no wind at the time of the outbreak ; if a westerly wind had been blowing the whole block, comprising six business premises, including the Q.N. Bank and the Post Office, must have gone. As it was, the next building started to burn, but the water furnished by the bucket brigade pre vented further damage.. The total loss is estimated at £2000.
