Memorial at the grave of James Ryan, a pauper who claimed to be Dan Kelly, the brother of Ned Kelly the famous bushranger. In 1933, an elderly man known as James Ryan, claimed to Brisbane`s Truth newspaper that he was, in fact, Dan Kelly, the brother of Ned Kelly. According to this and other articles which appeared in the newspaper, James Ryan, or Dan Kelly, escaped along with Steve Hart from the siege in the burning hotel at Glenrowan on 28 June 1880 and headed to Queensland with nothing but a new identity. The supposed bodies of Dan Kelly and Steve Hart were reduced to charcoal in the intense fire and were never positively identified. Speculation has been rife for over a century that Dan Kelly and Steve Hart managed to escape during the smoke, fire and commotion as Ann Jones` hotel burnt to the ground, probably assisted by a deliberately wrong "positive identification" by visiting Catholic Priest Father Gibney. The Truth newspaper reported that hundreds of historians from all over the country and even those who had associations with the Kelly`s could not disprove that James Ryan was truly Dan Kelly. Half a century after his gruesome death, a memorial has been erected at the grave site of a man who claimed he was an escaped member of the legendary Kelly Gang. James Ryan, buried in the pauper's section of Ipswich Cemetery, said his true identity was Dan Kelly: the brother of Australia's most famous bushranger, Edward 'Ned' Kelly. The memorial, which included a sandstone marker to identify the grave, a replica of Ned Kelly's suit of armour and a plaque recounting his story, was erected today in order to honour his memory after 50 years, says Ipswich Councillor Paul Tully. Erected on 11 November, it was also the 118th anniversary of Ned Kelly's hanging in Melbourne Gaol. Source: monumentaustralia.org.au/themes/people/crime/display/9169...

The Queensland Ambulance Service Begins It was the military medic Seymour Warrian who first called for a public meeting in Brisbane with the goals of establishing the first Queensland ambulance service. He was spurred after witnessing some well intentioned, but ill-advised bystanders go to the aid of a horse rider who had fallen off and broken his leg. Their efforts to escort the rider off the field only worsened his injuries and served as a sharp example of the need for properly trained medical attendants and transporters – know today as paramedics. On September 12, 1982, the Queensland Ambulance Transport Brigade (QATB) began. The Queensland Ambulance Service Grows For the next one hundred years the Queensland Ambulance Transport Brigade (QATB) was driven by the very same passion that led Seymour Warrian to establish it. The QATB grew rapidly from the early days when the first officers would take night duty sleeping on rolls of newspaper spread out across the floor of the Brisbane Newspaper Company. By 1991 there were over 90 community run QATB Queensland ambulance service centres throughout the state. Source: apcollege.edu.au/queensland-ambulance-service-humble-begi...
