I shall say it's Herbert Hoover. In 1897 Hoover was a young geologist who worked for a British mining company in Western Australia. Hoover arrived in the town of Kalgoorlie. Hoover worked in Australia for a few years, and while he was there he may have written a poem to a Kalgoorlie barmaid. Eventually Hoover returned to the USA and married Lou Henry.

I cannot answer the part about an event.

Boy, Roger and I are on the same wave length. My first guess was Teddy R. also, but when it wasn't him, I switched to Hoover strictly because of the gear he was wearing. I don't know about the event either.
