    precise moment

    Hello Jon. Thanks. I'm thinking she died between their "seeing daylight" and her opening the paper and withdrawing one.

    Cheers.

    Well, what if she took out the packet to get one and was killed before replacing them?

    Cheers.

    No cachous found in her mouth?

    Wasn't he just a lad? or did I read something that made me think that?
    Hi Curious,

    If he was just a lad, there was, in the 1891 census, a Ruben Galman (21), boarding at 50, Greenfield Street, Mile End Old Town - a cabinet maker.

    Regards, Bridewell.

    Stammer

    Hello Rob. Thanks. I don't see why this would not work. Of course, it may or may not dovetail with Schwartz's story.

    Now, just to make the gravy thick, do you recall the description of Stammer? "Broad shoulders" and "walks like a sailor"?

    Just for fun!

    Cheers.

    It strikes me that if they were her own cachous she would have taken one and put the packet in her pocket. She kept them in her hand because they were not hers.

    Perhaps,....as BS-man staggered away some thoughtful soul stepped out of the shadows with cachous in hand to console Stride after her being pushed around like that, and offered the packet to her, which is why she kept hold of them.
    Winning her confidence, he turned her around to clean the mud off her jacket, and then he struck...

    I remember that being discussed on the Arbeter Fraint thread earlier this year.

    Anyway, just a vague memory here, but I recall someone was out of sequence.
    I don't remember the recent discussion but a discussion some years back about this and that Gilleman was a reference to Dimshitz. It was a discussion between Paul Begg and Peter Turnball if I remember correctly. I'll see if I can dig it out somewhere.

    That's true. Actually, the scenario would, I suppose, be similar to Christer's old position that, once in the yard, she gave him a piece of her mind and, whilst exiting stopped for one of the cachous. Knowing Yiddish, she might have hurled an insult and proceeded eastward. The club man may have been on the brink, as it were, and reacted violently. Something like that?

    I like it.

    Say, you should do this more often.

    Cheers.

    Thanks Lynn, Yes that would make sense to me. I think the clubman would have left the scene after that. Going into the building wouldn't have been an option and he probably would have missed Dimshitz by a good five or ten minutes.

    Hi Curious,

    If you mean the young man referred to in Morris Eagle's inquest testimony his name was Gilleman. There's a Belgian named Louis Gilleman in the 1891 census, aged 31years and a wardrobe dealer. He lived in St Georges, Belgrave.

    Hi Archaic

    You're correct, from the 1790's to the end of WWI in 1918, Poland was not an independent nation.

    Part of Poland were under the control of the Austro-Hungarian Empire; other parts of it were under the dominion of the Russian Empire and the Prussian Empire. In fact, one of the Russian Tsar's official titles was 'Tsar of Poland'.
    This is what I was trying (very badly) to ask in my post last night, could the reason they change their birthplace from Poland to Russia be because of invading parties. Obviously by the next census they felt comfortable changing back to Polish.

    It is only an idea though I am not saying I know this is why the birthplaces changed for fact.

    That's okay Lynn. No reason why she couldn't have followed BS into the yard and continued arguing with him.
