Originally posted by The Station Cat View PostIt's readily excepted that the police records relating to the Whitechapel murders has over the years been pillaged by person or persons unknown and for what reason can only be guessed at.
I'm curious to know whether any of the missing documents have ever reemerged?
Also of interest would be, what happened to all the letters sent by "Jack" were they retained or disposed of?

The 1891 Census [5th April] provides a glimpse of the staff and types of patients then at the Seaside Home.
It was certainly not an environment into which you might risk sending Jack the Ripper, whether he was Kosher or Goy.

Originally posted by David Orsam View PostWell it's very easy and straightforward. 52893 was a standard Metropolitan Police file/correspondence reference (created in early September 1888) for the series of Whitechapel Murders, as shown in the police report in the third image above, and the top two images are cross-references to that file in the margin of a Special Branch register. All very dull really.
Gotta love the attempt to throw confusion at the mundane.

I shall leave you to sort this out for yourself. This is my last post on Casebook or anywhere else. Illness and encroaching old age are taking their toll, and I have many other things I want to do in the years before the Grim Reaper comes a-knocking.
So, good luck to you all, and stop believing all the nonsense you've been told.
Regards,
Simon
Could you hold off a bit longer until I divest myself of all popcorn shares and holdings!
Best of luck and thanks for the fun
