For those who think these women did not "scam", their very prostitution was a "Scam". Most of these women were too old, wasted, and lowdown to attract any "client" with their minds in their (upper) heads. Poverty and desperation were the running topics of Whitechapel theme park, circa 1888.

Hello Lipsky,

They might not have been attractive but apparently they were cheap and available. And I doubt that the average male worker employed in a low paying menial job in Whitechapel could afford a high class call girl.

Guess sum of 'em were evicted an' had to live under a bridge.

Was it also a coincidence that Mary Kelly had not paid rent since the double event!

There were probably a number of Whitechapel residents including other residents of Miller Court who had not paid rent since the double event. So yes, I think it is a coincidence.

OK,you know where 32 Flower and Dean Street was.

6,7 and 8 Fashion Street was a Jewish charity that ran a soup kitchen out the back. Just count them back from the corner.

PH on the other corner is The Queen's Head where Stride drank with Elizabeth Tanner,and George Hutchinson was allegedly passed by Mary Kelly and "A man".

No 13 Miller's Court in 1881,according to Chis Scott,was still considered part of the house,although sub let.

[Leanne]

From 1861 and possibly as Miller's Rents from circa 1851 when three residences were listed in the census.

The parlor that was to become number 13 was obviously tagged on sometime after the other 6 buildings/12 residences had been built.

No doubt Michael is correct.

Crikey,you're a long way off course for someone who wanted to limit this thread to Eddowes.
