The old building still at the corner of Porphyry Street was run by Dave Thomson, who came over with teams from New South Wales in the early sixties. The Commercial, in the centre of Eclipse Street, was kept by Bill Ellis, who had previously kept an hotel at Knebworth, where the old Tambo-road crossed the Dawson River. The third hotel, now known as The Top House, was the Shearers' Arms. It was built and managed by James Cassidy. Mr. Cassidy had been a sheep overseer with J. P. Bell at Jimbour, and afterwards with William Kelman, of Meteor Downs. It was both entertaining and instructive to chat with Mr. Cassidy about early days in Australia”. • Many of the Photos are thanks to State Library of Queensland
