Image title
"In 1976, 3 graves from the Franklin expedition were found on Beechey Island, Northwest Territories, Canada, by marine surveyors.[4] The graves belonged to (Wiliam) Braine, John Torrington and John Hartnell. The team exumed the bodies in 1984 and found them to be perfectly preserved, later determining that they had died from lead poisoning." - wikipedia
