    Le Grande getting himself involved with the Stride investigation, that included the shout of "Lipski!" and Le Grande's previous involvement in the investigation of the Lipski case a year earlier, that took place in the next street.

      Le Grande's apparent penchant for writing lots of letters in red ink, and some of the alleged Ripper correspondences being written in red ink and directly referencing the fact within the text itself.

        This actually goes full circle Lewis.

        Yes, Catherine Eddowes did go by the name Mary Kelly, but Mary Kelly had (we are told) previously been known as Mary Davis, and the next death, that of Rose Mylett, whose first name was Catherine, had also been known as Catherine Davis.

          Yes, that does make it even more interesting.

            I don't recall Eddowes going by the name 'Mary Kelly' but she did give the name 'Jane Kelly' and the address '6 Dorset Street', so police were actively looking for a woman named Kelly in Dorset Street following the double event. It's little wonder Mary was particularly nervous.

            Yours truly,

              Correct, Jane Kelly, my mistake.
