This is Matt's
grave where he was reinterred April 6, 1988 along with
his wife Lucy Ross Henson. The monument is the result
of efforts by Dr. Counter. His book and a
National Geographic article both provide the details
of his tribute to Henson.
Notice the sphere
in the background which is Robert Peary's monument -
a globe representing Earth with a bronze star at the
North Pole; the prize which he and Henson achieved
together.
