But how do we know he was such a mess then Abby ?
He could have been a loner that was supported by his family. It appears the family were doing well.
I am sure they would have supported him with the strong Jewish family ethic that one reads about. But maybe when they could take no more he was passed over to Jewish Board of Guardians and finally to the workhouse as destitute. His Mania might have only got worse in the following year.
I dont know if he was Jack and would love to prove he was not. I see him as someone who could not mix and got worse under stress. Maybe when he drunk he went over the top?
Might be totally wrong though.
