The 120th anniversary of the Autumn of Terror continues at Ripperologist as we focus on the events of September 1888.
With the terrible series of murders well under way, Paul Begg asks who is and who is not in his editorial Canonical Victims.
Neal Shelden, the leading researcher into the lives of the victims, introduces us to Annie Chapman, Mother of Four Children, before we discuss the scene of her murder in an in-depth, illustrated look at Hanbury Street, and conduct a equally critical evaluation of the various facts and theories surrounding the killing of Annie in Sorting the Wheat from the Chaff.
Albert Cadosche, potential vital witness in Hanbury Street, features in Don Souden's original fiction story, The Psalmist. Back in the world of fact, Neil Bell brings us the results of some excellent research into the Whitechapel Vigilantes in Defenceless Whitechapel. What do you know of the men who nabbed Dr Holt? Neil reveals all...
We're delighted to republish Karyo Magellan's detailed examination of the neck wounds sustained by the victims in Cutthroat, this time in serial form, accompanied by a corresponding illustrated look at the mutilations suffered by each victim - this month focussing on Annie Chapman.
In the second part of our Suspect series, Stan Russo takes a look at Leather Apron - John Pizer - and asks about Pizer's Problem, before we conclude our set of features for this month with Dr James Bailey examining the extraordinary glut of letter writing, purportedly from Jack the Ripper, in Pursuit of the Whitechapel Killer: Handwriting Analysis of Victorian Letters.
Jenni Pegg's Whitechapel Times and Chris Scott's Press Trawl lead to our reporting of the very latest news and reviews to round off the issue, but not before Jenni and Don return with a report of another 120th anniversary, that of the formation of the English football league in a Whitechapel Times sports extra.
Finally, we review the latest Ripper-related books, including Jack the Ripper: The Celebrity Suspects by Mike Holgate, The Worst
Street in London by Fiona Rule, and Elizabeth Stride and Jack the Ripper: The Life and Death of the Reputed Third Victim by Dave Yost, as well as an exclusive interview with that author.
But that's not all - this being the second of a quartet of special issues, themed around the 120 anniversary of these terrible crimes. Parts 3 and 4, covering October and November, are on their way.
