In the aftermath of the
In the aftermath of the murder of Mary Kelly - which took place on the morning of Friday the 9th November, 1888 - people began congregating around the narrow entrance into Miller's Court inside which the murder had taken place.
Tow days later, on the evening of Sunday the 11th of November, a journalist from the Daily News arrived in the street to observe the people and find our as much as he could about the crime, whilst, at the same time, hoping to gain an insight into the lives of the local residents.
His report was published the next day (Monday the 12th of November) and it really does provide us with an evocative view of one of the Jack the Ripper murder sites in the immediate aftermath of the atrocity.
Not only did the journalist write about the crowds that were milling around the scene, but he also interviewed a "missionary" who had known Mary Kelly, and who private a little information about her antecedents.
This video features the full text of the story and combines it with contemporary photographs and illustrations to provide a glimpse into the murky world of Victorian Spitalfields and the lives of the people who lived there.
Your time capsule awaits!
