Dear Boss,
I keep on hearing the police have caught me but they wont fix
me just yet. I have laughed when they look so clever and talk
about
being on the right track. That joke about Leather Apron gave me
real fits. I am down on whores and I shant quit ripping them till
I
do get buckled. Grand work the last job was. I gave the lady no
time to squeal. How can they catch me now. I love my work and
want to start again. You will soon hear of me with my funny little
games. I saved some of the proper red stuff in a ginger beer bottle
over the last job to write with but it went thick like glue and
I cant use it. Red ink is fit enough I hope ha. ha. The next job
I do I
shall clip the ladys ears off and send to the police officers
just for jolly wouldn't you. Keep this letter back till I do a
bit more work,
then give it out straight. My knife's so nice and sharp I want
to get to work right away if I get a chance. Good Luck.
Yours truly
Jack the Ripper
Dont mind me giving the trade name
PS Wasnt good enough to post this before I got all the red ink
off my hands curse it No luck yet. They say I'm a doctor now.

You though your-self very clever I reckon when you informed
the police. But you made a mistake if you though I dident see
you.
Now I known you know me and I see your little game, and I mean
to finish you and send your ears to your wife if you show this
to
the police or help them if you do I will finish you. It no use
your trying to get out of my way. Because I have you when you
dont
expect it and I keep my word as you soon see and rip you up.
Yours truly Jack the Ripper.
PS You see I know your address

Beware I shall be at work on the 1st and 2nd inst. in the Minories
at 12 midnight and I give the authorities a good chance but
there is never a policeman near when I am at work. Yours Jack
the Ripper.

What fools the police are. I even give them the name of the
street where I am living. Prince William Street.

Eight little whores, with no hope of heaven,
Gladstone may save one, then there'll be seven.
Seven little whores beggin for a shilling,
One stays in Henage Court, then there's a killing.
Six little whores, glad to be alive,
One sidles up to Jack, then there are five.
Four and whore rhyme aright,
So do three and me,
I'll set the town alight
Ere there are two.
Two little whores, shivering with fright,
Seek a cosy doorway in the middle of the night.
Jack's knife flashes, then there's but one,
And the last one's the ripest for Jack's idea of fun.
