Hutch in the 1911 Census?

bonjour David

merci mon ami! (that's sadly the limit of my French!)

And i agree...mind fully open to possibilities here.

Morning all

Just having a coffee while the folder comes out of the abyss. Any requests while I'm here? The case notes are all together, so I have access to it all today. Quick though - got work to do!

Sorry all. Just pissed that this guy comes on and makes such a blanket statement after all the bitterness that has passed here, and then Ben gives him a glowing endorsement. Ben knows it's bs. I don't care if someone comes on and says, "this is what I believe," but after these lengthy battles and hard feelings that was EXACTLY what we didn't need.

Cheers,

Mike

while you are there Crystal can you ask them about the Klosowski/Chapman file...totally unrelated but soooo interesting!


happy reading !

[babybird67]

i had to post this...

on reading the Martha Tabram, is she a victim, thread, i came across this wonderfully reasonable, rational, well-argued, exemplary posting and had to transpose it here for everyone's edification (apart from Mike's, as i've already established he's incorrigible, and he apparently doesn't notice what i tweet about him anyway )...

I think your advice to agree to disagree on it is by far the best way to end this discussion
The interesting thing here is that though we may be viewed as being very far from each other, I do not think that we are. Small changes in the evidence material could probably have swayed both of us to some significant degree, I think.
But as it stands, I will opt for your closing sentence as being a wise one; who knows, indeed?

who could possibly have posted this erudite passage, acknowledging that the closing sentence of any discussion of two mutually exclusive views ought to be "who knows?"

Must be someone on the side of the debate that holds the same circumspect views on Toppy. Must be. Nobody else has shown such reason, such dignity, such sobriety, such applomb.

We cannot agree, let's agree to disagree...who would have said that?

Glad you said sorry. Maybe you're only 99% incorrigible after all.

Mike,

Please join Fisherman on his fishing trip if you're insistent upon making tiresome and irrational accusations against posters with honest motivations. Garry expressed his opinion on the signatures, which he is more than entitled to do. He did so with total circuspection, and without being the slightest bit inflammatory, touching on an important observation that to his mind had been overlooked during the course of the discussion. I agree, since it recalled an earlier observation by another poster that full names, or at least initials, were to be appended to police statements for the purpose of correct identification. He didn't make anything resembling a "blanket statement", although I think you know full well that if someone chimed in with "Toppy is Hutch - end of discussion!", you wouldn't be chastising them.

Of course it is impossible from that point of view to look objectively at these signatures.

Why just from that point of view? You've been on an extremely anti-Hutchinson mindset for at least three years, as I recall. I don't see how that preconception is any less likely to endger a biased mindset. I'm sure psychologists will bear that out, too.

If you're unhappy with the bitterness, please don't contribute to it whenever possible by disparaging the contributions made by new members to the message boards, especially when your criticisim is so obviously allied to your frustration that yet another contributor does not agree with your overconfident Toppy-is-Hutch mindset.

Ben

I feel sorry for you.

Hi Crystal,

How does it feel to look at the Ripper signature ?

No, that's a stupid joke...
I've nothing to ask you, except: work good, forget Fish, forget Ben, forget everyone and everything.
Have new eyes today, please, and if it's Toppy, it's Toppy.

No matter!
No wonder...?

Amitiés,
and thanks,
David

Ditty (or "the reason why I write in French to be published)

Crystal is in Kew
Some Swede will say: "Phew..."
Crystal is in Kew
For the Toppy few
Crystal is in Kew
To bring something new
Let me then call you
For a barbecue...

[The Good Michael]

Was that a Paul Simon song?

Just get in the queue lou,
For entering Kew sue,
Don't step in the poo, you,
Just listen to me,

Just look at the big sig,
Don't need to do a jig, pig
Just find out the fact Jack,
And set this thread free

Paul without Art

Sound advice, David.

It would constitute progress even if she did report back that Hutchinson was the Toppster all along.

I'd still love her.

Just that little bit less.

[babybird67]

Ben !!!!!!!!!!!

never mind.

All the more of her for me!

[Crystal]

Ben Loves Me?

Well...

Ben, I love you too.

We love each other.

But not as much as Hutch...

[Crystal]

Hi All

It's done. I think it would not be overstating the case to say that the picture has been somewhat altered by what I have seen today.

I am due back on Saturday to pick up some additional material, and in the meantime, I'll be putting everything together for the perusal of any who care to see it.
