    try Don

    Hello Don. You might try Don himself. He has an amazing array of articles and is very accommodating. I daresay he has a copy.

    Cheers.

    Don Soudens talk at Wolverhampton in 2007 should be made mandatory listening to all students of the case.
    Hi Monty, this caught my eye...is there a written account or published text of this available anywhere please? Sounds like the sort of thing there ought to be...

    All the best

    beats me

    Hello Simon. Thanks.

    At this point, I cannot offer an intelligent answer. Just drawing blanks.

    Cheers.

    Hi Lynn,

    With whom could she have had an appointment? Certainly not the Kent Hop Pickers' Association.

    Was this, perhaps, the beginning of her choreographed "end"?

    Regards,

    Simon

    Come out, come out, wherever you are.

    Hello Simon. Thanks.

    "For reasons we do not yet understand Eddowes' whereabouts on the night of Friday 28th September had to be accounted for."

    Quite. So we must keep looking.

    Cheers.

    Fishman, 2

    Hello Neil. Thanks. That might be interesting, but perhaps not on a par with his book on social conditions in 1888 and ESPECIALLY the one about socialism/anarchism. Hard to beat.

    Cheers.

    Hi Lynn,

    For reasons we do not yet understand Eddowes' whereabouts on the night of Friday 28th September had to be accounted for.

    And so John Kelly accounted for them.

    The coroner, the police and the press appear to have been a bunch of credulous dimwits.

    Regards,

    Simon

    Regarding Fishman, I have two of his books, read both. To which do you refer?

    Cheers.

    Both, I'd even recommend you read his shopping list.

    They will the realise the importance of contemporary assessment of the area, people and the social interaction.

    Failing that read Fishman, or Mayhew or even London.

    You may learn something.

    questions, questions

    Hello Simon. Thanks.

    "I wish you'd stop asking logical questions."

    Funny you should mention that. When I was a wee lad I was frequently chid by adults for that same reason. Sad part, no one could, or would, answer them.

    Cheers.

    a nonsense

    Hello Simon. And this brings up an interesting question.

    It makes perfect sense for two people who are broke to spend 2d each and go to Shoe Lane Casual Ward. But it makes no sense whatsoever for both to separate the next night--one to Mile End; one to Cooney's. Why not both back at Shoe lane?

    Cheers.

    Hi Michael,

    The boots had to be pawned on Saturday to support Kelly's contention that, because of a lack of funds, Eddowes was forced to spend Friday night at the Mile End Casual Ward.

    Kindly consider this exchange—

    [Crawford?] "Seeing the date on the tickets, cannot you recollect when the pawning took place?"

    [John Kelly] "I cannot say, I am so muddled up. It was either Friday or Saturday."

    [Coroner] "Had you been drinking when the pawning took place?"

    [John Kelly] "Yes."

    How? Prior to pawning the boots they hadn't got a penny between them.

    John Kelly's story has more holes than a tramp's vest.

    Regards,

    Simon
