    Despite the incorrect spelling of the surname, I believe this is indeed the burial place for Gilbert.
    There is a reference to his place of burial in the memoirs of his brother, Donald Hunt.
    I have also found a reference to to his death in a book called "Nyasaland Under the Foreign Office" by Hector Livingstone Duff.
