Jack the Ripper

Source A describes two murders, which startled London, the killings of Martha Tabram and Polly Nicholls. Whitechapel (setting of the murders) was a crime-ridden place. It wasn’t the cleanest of places, or best laid out. Whitechapel was a string of narrow passages. From this source we can learn about Polly Nicholls’ death.

Firstly, she died a similar, extraordinary violent death as Martha Tabram, which suggests the same ‘demented’ killer. She was claimed to be the ‘poorest of the poor’, a prostitute, which infers there could have been no motive. As the police didn’t have the forensics or scientific knowledge that we have today, they had no evidence to work on.

This source is useful, but it does have its weaknesses. Firstly we have to take into consideration that it is a newspaper article and it is very limited in what to offers. The language is quite simple and unspecific. The author probably hasn’t seen any of the bodies, and suggests another weakness in the source. Basically this article is just generating/reflecting emotions of the ‘startled people in London’ at the time.

Source B deals with the Coroner’s rep
