Although Henry taught school in both Taunton, England and various communities in the United States for many years, he was a self-proclaimed "traveling Evangelist." However, Henry was really more of what we would today call an activist. He traveled throughout Michigan, Ohio and Colorado speaking on behalf of various foreign relief organizations and children's homes.
