FATAL TRAIN ACCIDENT. An accident of a very sad and awful nature occurred at Proserpine early on Thursday morning, result ing in the death of Mrs. Brookes, of Ayr, and her granddaughter, aged about three years. It appears that she was proceeding from Ayr to Proserpine by the mail train and, on arrival at Proserpine at about 4 a.m., thinking it was not going to stop, jumped off with the child in her arms and fell under the carriage, which went over her, cutting off one of her legs and causing other fearful injuries the child being killed instantly. Not withstanding her terrible injuries, Mrs Brookes lived until 9 a.m. The bodies were taken by that night’s train to Ayr for interment. Mrs. Brookes was a native of Bowen, the eldest daughter of the late Mr and Mrs Donald Cameron, of Clunes, Lower Burdekin, and a niece of Mrs Hornung, George Street. The child was a daughter of Mrs White, of Proserpine; Mrs Brookes was widely known and highly respected and her untimely death under such tragic circumstances; will be deeply regretted. Daily Mercury (Mackay) 12 April 1926 Proserpine is still in the grip of the horror, of the railway accident which occurred on Thursday morning last, When Mrs. Brooks, of Ayr, and her little granddaughter, Olive Wight, lost their lives in such a tragic manner.
