Might there have been a lead there?

[Michael W Richards]

"DEAR BOSS - Just a line to let you know that I got over the job all right. I shall do another job in about two or three hundred yards of same spot in about two or three days. Yours. "J.R."

"Great excitement was caused in the East-end and throughout the metropolis generally to-day by the attempted murder of a woman in the district of the recent tragedies. The crime was committed within three minutes walk of Dorset street, the scene of the last murder, and by a coincidence the victim of the George yard murder lodged at the same house, and the woman murdered in Osborne street lived next door."

This is the Annie Farmer case. JTR must have gotten pretty sloppy to be the assailant here. Superficial wounds and in the middle of a public lodging house in broad daylight. The police dismissed it as a Ripper event.
