Hi all,
I direct you to read the dissertation on the Whitechapel Club in Chicago by Dr. Larry Lorentz, as well as the Club documentation linked at the bottom of the dissertation's page.
However, you will not find in the above the following, from a larger article on the Whitechapel Club that appeared in the Salt Lake City Herald of 5 April 1891. A letter from 'Jack the Ripper' to the Club members which promised to send along with it a bloody shawl belonging to victim 'No.3'.
Tongue in cheek, most likely, but I thought an interesting early reference to a bloody shawl, differing in description to the Amos Simpson shawl, and a victim list that is possibly calling Eddowes 'No.3'. Make of it what you will.
Sorry it's a bit blurry...
