Veracity

[Herlock Sholmes]

There’s not a shred of evidence that the marginalia is fake.

Hi Barnaby.

Trust in facts and you will get your answer.

Simon

Just be very wary of where & whom you get the facts from.

[Simon Wood]

Hi Wickerman,

Exactly.

Which is why the JtR mystery is in such a mess.

There's no end to the rubbish people choose to believe.

Hi Barnaby,

I can't really help you here, because most Ripper stalwarts have already thrown in their lot with the Swanson Marginalia.

See Ripperologist 128, which should tell you all you need to know about the people who have worked so diligently to make this particular phoney baloney aspect of the Ripper mystery a fact, and go from there.

Trust in facts and you will get your answer.

Thanks, Simon. I will read it!

Not, unless, it wasn't true and all wishful thinking or invention.

Or intentionally misleading? Is this Swanson Marginalia really that different from Abberline with his 1903 "Chapman Proclamation"?

Doesnt it seem interesting that neither of these statements have any kind of tangible evidence offered as proof of the theory (theories), even hinted at? The same with Andersons "Ascertained Fact".
