Description
This article clipping from "The (London) Times", a conservative newspaper, reports on the "double murder" of Elizabeth Stride and Catherine Eddowes in a much more serious tone than satirical newspapers of the time. It details evidence found at the scenes of both crimes, as well as some speculation into the killer's intent and the lives of the victims. The police are credited for narrowly missing the murderer the night before, yet are also accused of failing to follow vital clues in the case that would allow them to catch the Ripper.
