The Dilemma:

Throughout her 1876 diary, Lucilla Beebe mentions a rather wild young man named Henry, who alternately delights and scandalizes her. Was Henry a neighbor, a childhood friend, a beau, an unrequited love? All of the above? None of the above? What was Henry's surname? What did he do for a living? What became of him?

Send your theory to IDHenry@vyes.org. Be sure to include the evidence that led to your conclusion.

And now, here are Lucilla's diary entries that mention "Henry"
