The town of Stanthorpe is in the background.View a larger version of this picture: small | medium | large (pictures open in a new window) This picture is part of the Bonzle Bridges (open in new window) photo collection.

(Images made by Boag are in the collection of the Campbelltown and Airds Historical Society.) Boag arrived in Queensland in November 1871. He travelled around the south-east, along the foreshore of Moreton Bay and the township of Cleveland. He then moved into the Logan and Albert area where he captured images of local crushing mills and sugar plantations. While at Yatala, he took on a partner, John Henry Mills, and by the end of 1872, both men were in Stanthorpe where they remained for several months, producing views of the booming tin-mining settlement.
In July 1873, after stopping off in Warwick, Boag and Mills extended their operations to Mackay, where they remained until October 1875. During this time, Boag made trips to St Lawrence and Cooktown, however his movements after this are difficult to trace. It is known that by mid 1876 he was at Copperfield and Clermont, and in February 1878, he inserted a notice in the Peak Downs Telegram announcing that he was leaving for the west. Then information ceases abruptly. It is possible that Boag never reached his destination, since his death certificate records that he died in 1878 at an unknown location.
This steam engine was made by Robey and Company of Lincoln, England. It was used to drive a water pump which drained the workings or helped with the task of sluicing. It was a small four-horse power model which was fired with wood and was protected from the weather by a makeshift shelter covered with a canvas tarpaulin.
