Henry Leyden Stevens (1859-1885)

He was described as a "sports enthusiast" and was engaged in 1882 to the celebrated future author, Edith Wharton. But, the engagement was broken off soon afterwards owing to what was then described in Town & Topics as, "an alleged preponderance of intellectuality on the part of the intended bride". Harry died unmarried just three years later and his estate was executed by the popular society beau Arthur Leary.
