    Many thanks for that, I guess that because the article quotes Spicer, then it is unlikely he would of got the streets confused even 40 odd years later.
    I was hopeing that it was a reporter who may of mixed the two Heneage's up.

      Ah yes..that again.

      I have always doubted White's story, but cant completly shake it off.
      If the article in 1931 concerning Spicer's arrest was correct, then surley there is a chance that there was a mix up concerning Heneage Court and Heneage Lane. And because the story relates to the "double event night ",then Whites story could hold some water.
      The description he gives is uncannily like Druitt, who often got mixed up with being a doctor years later.
      Again..just a thought.
      Hi Spyglass,

      Imo, White's report and Spicer's story are unrelated.
      While, as you said, we can't completely shake off White's, Spicer's story seems nothing but a joke.

        Yes. That's the point where you just read on to enjoy the story for the sake of a good story.

        Interestingly, a good Yarn.

          Oh, I like Spicer very much.
          His "Hello Jack ! Still after them ?" is unforgettable.

          Amitiés,

            I have always thought that one of the keys to this whole affair is the matter of Heneage Court.
            Henage or Heneage Court as far as I am aware is only mentioned by Spicer and in the poem about 'Eight little whores' which I think appears in the Maybrick Diary and a book by Donald McCormick.
            This is very significant and I have been wondering whether to bring it to everybodys attention. I have decided that it is best to share my thoughts. I am new to the sit but have read several books and done a little research over the years.
            There is a direct link between Heneage Court and the Hanbury Street murder in that Spicer states the arrest was made in Henage Court and I have roughly calculated that the court would have been located at about no 13 Heneage Street the home of James Hardiman. Who also frequented indeed lived at times in Hanbury Street.

            We must also remember that Mitre Square is near to Heneage Lane. Is there some kind of mistaken address going on.

            I am not sure what exactly this means but as I say I think it is significant.
            I hope this helps

            I will keep my mind ticking over on this
