Wikipedia description:
René Jadfard (born 24 January 1899 in Cayenne, French Guiana; died 9 November 1947) was a politician from French Guiana who was elected to the French National Assembly in 1947, journalist and novelist. He was killed in an airplane crash in 1947 when the small amphibious plane bringing him, the prefect Robert Vignon and the director of printing Monsieur Marsau crashed into the Sinnamary en route to Saint-Laurent. The pilot and the other two passengers were able to swim to safety and reach the palétuviers (mangroves) on the river bank, but Jadfard drowned. As with the death of Jean Galmot in 1928 tension was raised in the population but the funeral was conducted with great dignity. A biography by the French Guianan politician Georges Othily: René Jadfard ou l'éclair d'une vie was published by Éditions caribéennes in 1989.
