She was a bad drummer in the Lord Mayor's band?

She had been drinking heavily and overslept. She never even showed up. She had already received a verbal warning, so of course she had to go.

Do you know what the Lord Mayor said in the press about the Whitechapel murderer?

Of course not.

Mary Kelly had to die because Jack was feeling homicidal at the time and had a lot of time on his hands. He could go home afterwards and relax as the Lord Mayor's Show was a public holiday.

I love the Lord Mayor's Coach but why is it being pulled by draught horses? They are beautiful animals but it doesn't look very elegant.

I don't believe I do, aside from offering a substantial reward.

Couldn't say what he had to say in 1888. From right field, if Whitehead was psychic, maybe, "Kitty Byron will do a simpler job of it on this date in 1902!"

[Rosella]

As Whitehead was a Liberal, a Radical and a philanthropist he probably mentioned the contrast between the way Mary and her fellow tenants lived and the costly show of the Lord Mayor's Show when he spoke to the Press. He did participate in that show, mind you, but he cut down on a lot of its sideshow atmosphere.

No. What did he say.

No, the sitting Lord Mayor was De Keyser.

One month before the murderer of Kelly there was an interview with De Keyser in the press, where he stated that the assasin was "undoubtedly mad" and that it "would not be surprising if he should soon commit suicide".

(See for instance The Freemanīs Journal, October 9, 1888, p. 5)

I admit to being unable to connect the dots, here...

fly in the ointment

Hello Karl. Perhaps those dots are merely fly defecations?

Cheers.
