I really wonder about this. With all the eyewitnesses we have who saw him approach the box around c.10:15 P.M. I do not understand why no one other than Clara reported an earlier visit. Was Clara confused? I don't know, but I do wonder about this aspect of her account.

On p. 39 Caleb writes, "He may have had difficulty managing feelings of anxiety even as a child. His father's death may have precipitated a nightmare of emotions for him, but he was able to hide away in a large house, with little else to worry about. An affluent upbringing provided Henry the means to escape...Rathbone's station in life rarely forced a need to overcome hardship, and it's possible that an underlying mental illness was present all along."

If this be true then is it not possible that Henry was likely headed for problems as an adult even without the war/assassination?
