an Addy for Severin

[halomanuk]

So we all assume together then ?

[Sam Flynn]

Mmm so it would have to be at least June/july 1887...

No, because the best information at the disposal of the Solicitor General at Klosowski's interest only allowed him to opine that Klosowski arrived in England "sometime" during 1888. Furthermore, contextually-speaking, the sum total of the witness testimony would seem to support this same conclusion.

The pro-1887 argument is based on the fact that Klosowski's last (kept) documents from Poland included a receipt for tuition fees that took him up to March 1887. It is often assumed that he somehow "must have" upped-stumps and left Poland almost immediately thereafter, but this remains pure speculation.

Does he give a year for this address Dave?

He does not but he has the timing as conventionally understood and he asserts it's primacy. I am assuming he gathered that contextually. Respectfully Dave

On page 240 of The Elements of Murder John Emsley gives Severin's !st address in London as 54 Cranbrook street, Bethnal Green. Emsley states that this address comes from inside a polish book Severin had at arrest. Respectfully Dave

Thanks Dave.This is interesting but when and where did John Emsley find such information? Also does he say when it was-what year and month?

Cheers
