JACK the RIPPER (The Whitechapel Murders) VICTIMS JACK THE RIPPER (The Whitechapel Murders) VICTIMS 03 Apr 1888 - 13 Feb 1891 Compiled by Campbell M gold (2012) (This material has been compiled from various unconfirmed sources) CMG Archives http://campbellmgold.com --()-- Introduction The following material is a basic compilation of "facts" related to the Whitechapel murders. The sources include reported medical evidence, police comment, and inquest reports - as far as possible Ripper myths have not been considered. Additionally, where there was no other source available, newspaper reports have been used sparingly. No attempt has been made to identify the perpetrator of the murders and no conclusions have been made. Consequently, the reader is left to arrive at their own conclusions. Eleven Murders The Whitechapel Murders were a series of eleven murders which occurred between Apr 1888 and Feb 1891. Ten of the victims were prostitutes and one was an unidentified female (only the torso was found). It was during this period that the Jack the Ripper murders took place. Even today, 2012, it still remains unclear as to how many victims Jack the Ripper actually killed. However, it is generally accepted that he killed at least four of the "Canonical" five. Some researchers postulate that he murdered only four women, while others say that he killed as many as seven or more. Some earlier deaths have also been speculated upon as possible Ripper victims. 1 The murders were considered too much for the local Whitechapel (H) Division C.I.D, headed by Detective Inspector Edmund Reid, to handle alone. Assistance was sent from the Central Office at Scotland Yard, after the Nichols murder, in the persons of Detective Inspectors, Frederick George Abberline, Henry Moore, and Walter Andrews, together with a team of subordinate officers. Reinforcements were drafted into the area to supplement the local men. After the Eddowes murder the City Police, under Detective Inspector James McWilliam, were also engaged on the hunt for the killer.

Thus, it must be said that we simply do not know which of them for certain were the work of a single killer. Over the years, mainly as a result of the beliefs of Melville Macnaghten (Chief Constable of Scotland Yard), the "Ripper" victims have been listed as: Martha Tabram - Though not one of the canonical five, Martha Tabram has gained favour, as time has passed, as a possible Ripper victim in the opinion of some researchers and historians Mary Ann (Polly) Nichols Annie Chapman Elizabeth Stride 2 Catherine Eddowes Mary Jane Kelly The Whitechapel Crimes as Described by the Metropolitan Police What has to be understood is the fact that the "Ripper Murders" and the "Whitechapel Murders" are not the same thing, although the latter does include the "Ripper Murders". So to set the scene, the list of the eleven Whitechapel murders, (all of which at some stage have been looked upon as "Ripper" murders), was as follows: Throat cutting attended the murders of Nichols, Chapman, Stride, Eddowes, Kelly, McKenzie and Coles In all except the cases of Stride and Mylett there was abdominal mutilation In the case of Chapman the uterus was taken away by the killer Eddowes' uterus and left kidney were taken away by the killer In the Kelly case, evidence suggests, that the heart was taken away by the killer --()-- 3 THE BEGINNING? Emma Elizabeth Smith b. c.1843 Attacked Tue, 03 Apr 1888 d. Wed, 04 Apr 1888 Entrance to Brick Lane where Osborn Street becomes Brick Lane, Whitechapel Contemporary report on the murder of Emma Smith In the early hours (12:15 to 4:15am) of the morning of 03 Apr 1888, the prostitute Emma Elizabeth Smith, a "friendless widow", was viciously attacked by a gang at the narrow entrance to Brick Lane, where Osborn Street becomes Brick Lane, Whitechapel. Emma had been living at 18 George Street for about eighteen months, and had a very set routine: she'd leave her lodgings between 6:00 and 7:00pm, practice her trade for the night, and then return in the small hours of the next morning. Events MON, 02 APR 1888 Easter Monday 6:00pm Emma left home to go and seek for trade. TUE, 03 APR 1888 12:15am She was seen by Margaret Hayes at around 12:15am talking to a man dressed in dark clothes and a white scarf in Fairance Street, Limehouse. 4 Brick Lane Brick Lane, where Osborn Street becomes Brick Lane TUE, 03 APR 1888 4:15am The next time Emma was seen was when she staggered into her lodgings at 18 George Street (now Lolesworth Street), Spitalfields. Her face was bloodied and her ear was cut, and she had her woollen shoulder wrap pressed between her thighs to stem the blood flow from the injury that would later lead to her death. She later reported that when she was returning home in the early hours of the morning (probably the worse for drink), at least three, possibly four youths began following her from Whitechapel Church. They stopped her at the entry to Brick Lane (where Osborne Street becomes Brick Lane), where they beat, raped, and viciously jabbed a blunt object into her vagina, tearing the perineum. The boys emptied her purse before leaving her to die on the street. Although having been beaten and raped, and having sustained a serious injury, Emma managed to get up and walk back to her lodgings. The lodging house deputy, Mary Russell and lodger Annie Lee, were amazed that she had made it this far, and rushed Emma (against her will) to the London Hospital on Whitechapel Road. At the hospital, Emma was attended by George Haslip the house surgeon. She remained conscious long enough to describe her assailants and the details of her assault. Finally, the severity of her injuries caused her to slip into a coma, and she died the following day (Wed, 04 Apr 1888). It is generally believed that it was one of the many Whitechapel gangs who killed Emma, and not Jack the Ripper. "High rip" gangs were known to frequent the area where Emma was attacked, extorting money from prostitutes and other downtrodden women in return for their "protection". 5 Additionally, it was only in Sep 1888, some five months later, that it was suggested, by the press, that Emma's death was linked to the Ripper murders. The first the police knew of the murder was on Fri, 06 Apr 1888 when they were informed by the Coroner's Office that an inquest into Emma Smith’s death was to be held on Sat, 07 Apr 1888 (the next day). --()-- Inquest of Emma Smith Sat, 07 Apr, 1888 The Times (London), on Mon, 09 Apr 1888, Reported the Emma Smith Inquest as follows: Mr. Wynne E. Baxter, the East Middlesex Coroner, held an inquiry on Saturday [7 Apr] at the London Hospital respecting the death of EMMA ELIZABETH SMITH, aged 45, a widow, lately living at 18, George-street, Spitalfields, who, it was alleged, had been murdered. Chief Inspector West, of the H Division of Police, attended for the Commissioners of Police. Mrs. Mary Russell, deputy keeper of a common lodging-house, stated that she had known the deceased for about two years. On the evening of Bank Holiday [02 Apr 1888] she left home at 7 o'clock, and returned about 4 or 5 the next morning in a dreadful state. Her face and head were much injured, one of her ears being nearly torn off. She told the witness that she had been set upon and robbed of all her money. She also complained of pains in the lower part of the body. Witness took her to the hospital, and when passing along Osborne-street the deceased pointed out the spot where she was assaulted. She said there were three men, but she could not describe them. Mr. George Haslip, house surgeon, stated that when the deceased was admitted to the hospital she had been drinking but was not intoxicated. She was bleeding from the head and ear, and had other injuries of a revolting nature. Witness found that she was suffering from rupture of the peritoneum, which had been perforated by some blunt instrument used with great force.

  • Jack the Ripper: the Divided Self and the Alien Other in Late-Victorian Culture and Society
    Jack the Ripper: The Divided Self and the Alien Other in Late-Victorian Culture and Society Michael Plater Submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy 18 July 2018 Faculty of Arts The University of Melbourne ii ABSTRACT This thesis examines late nineteenth-century public and media representations of the infamous “Jack the Ripper” murders of 1888. Focusing on two of the most popular theories of the day – Jack as exotic “alien” foreigner and Jack as divided British “gentleman” – it contends that these representations drew upon a series of emergent social and cultural anxieties in relation to notions of the “self” and the “other.” Examining the widespread contention that “no Englishman” could have committed the crimes, it explores late-Victorian conceptions of Englishness and documents the way in which the Ripper crimes represented a threat to these dominant notions of British identity and masculinity. In doing so, it argues that late-Victorian fears of the external, foreign “other” ultimately masked deeper anxieties relating to the hidden, unconscious, instinctual self and the “other within.” Moreover, it reveals how these psychological concerns were connected to emergent social anxieties regarding degeneration, atavism and the “beast in man.” As such, it evaluates the wider psychological and sociological impact of the case, arguing that the crimes revealed the deep sense of fracture, duality and instability that lay beneath the surface of late-Victorian English life, undermining and challenging dominant notions of progress, civilisation and social advancement. Situating the Ripper narrative within a broader framework of late-nineteenth century cultural uncertainty and crisis, it therefore argues that the crimes (and, more specifically, populist perceptions of these crimes) represented a key defining moment in British history, serving to condense and consolidate a whole series of late-Victorian fears in relation to selfhood and identity.

  • VICTIMS 8Th September of JACK 1888 the RIPPER Born 1841
    Worksheets from RJ Tarr and M. Ellis at www.activehistory.co.uk 2. THE STORY OF POLLY NICHOLS Mary Anne Nichols or ‘Polly’ as she was known to her friends was born on 26th August 1845 in Dean Street, Whitechapel. Her father, Edward Walker was a locksmith. In January 1864 she married William Nichols, a printer’s machinist. The couple went to live with Polly’s father. They stayed there about ten years. In 1874 they set up home for themselves at 6D Peabody Buildings, Stamford Street. They had five children: Edward (1866), Percy (1868), Alice (1870), Eliza (1877) and Henry (1879). Despite all the years they spent together, Polly and William’s marriage ended in 1880. Polly lived in the Lambeth workhouse from 6 September 1880 until 31 May 1881. William paid Polly an allowance of 5 shillings a week during this time until he found out that she had started living with another man. Polly’s remaining years were spent in workhouses and doss houses. Between 24th April 1882 and 24 March 1883 she lived at Lambeth workhouse. There is a gap of four years when Polly lives with her father again, but they quarrelled because Polly was a heavy drinker. She left her father and lived with a blacksmith called Thomas Drew. On 25th October 1887 she stayed at St Giles workhouse. Then, from 26 October to 2 December 1887 she stayed at the Strand Workhouse. On 19th December she returned to Lambeth workhouse but was thrown out ten days later. On 4 January 1888 she was admitted to the Mitcham Workhouse, but transferred back to Lambeth on 4 April 1888.

It is possible that the Ripper may have claimed more than five victims, but most experts agree that at least five of the East End murders were the work of Jack the Ripper. Emma Elizabeth Smith The first victim in the series of Whitechapel Murders was a prostitute by the name of Emma Elizabeth Smith. She was attacked and raped on Osbourn Street in Whitechapel on 3 April 1888. During the sexual assault, her attackers inserted a blunt object into her vagina, an injury which would take her life the following day. Before she died the next day at a London hospital, Smith told authorities that two or three men, one of them a teenager, were responsible for her attack. The press had linked Smith’s murder to the subsequent Whitechapel Murders, but most experts later believed that particular murder to be the result of random gang violence. Martha Tabram The next victim in the series of Whitechapel Murders was Martha Tabram, a prostitute in the East End.
