Archivist’s Note: His memorial was published prematurely in the 1890 Century Association Yearbook; he would not die until several years later. A different man named Henry Harrison died in New York on 24 April 1889, and newspaper notices of that man’s death were likely misinterpreted as being for the Century member.
