How Joel met his wife: "Miss Blanche Harris contributed poems, enigmas and rebuses to The Lady's Diary, from about 1775 to 1785, during which period Joel Lean was asking and answering mathematical questions in The Gentleman's Diary. These two contributors were consequently induced to seek an interview which led to their union on the 2 Jan., 1777."
