This section owns documentary unknowns — and the build holds three good ones, none of them a crime. First, the lake eponym: Riddles Lake's name rests on a possessive in Howard (1907) — "Riddle's lake" — with two Riddle settlers (Henry and John, Section 2, from 1837) standing juxtaposed and unstated in the same texts; no carrier says the lake was named for them or for anyone, and the eponym stands unproven at source after the worked pass in Folklore (lk-folklore-lakes-naming). Second, the town's name: Howard gives a derivation ("from a number of small lakes south of the town") with no namer, no naming act and no date, and Geyer's narrative passes from "Earl Town" to Lakeville without a reason (lk-folklore-town-name). Third, the shelf's own mystery: the town's own book, Geyer's Now & Then, exists and is located, but cannot be dated from any catalogue the build can reach. To these the rivers leg adds its documentary blank: no named outlet stream for either lake was reached in any carrier (lk-rem-rivers, settler the National Hydrography Dataset). This section's roll is the four documentary unknowns above — places, names and a book — which is the class the checklist defines.
