History of London

	Whitechapel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		It is a built-up inner city district located 3.4 miles (5.5 km) east of Charing Cross and roughly bounded by the Bishopsgate thoroughfare on the west, Hanbury Street on the north, Brady Street and Cavell Street on the east and Commercial Road on the south.
		Whitechapel's heart is Whitechapel Road itself, named for a small chapel of ease dedicated to St. Mary: its earliest known rector was Hugh de Fulbourne in 1329.
		Whitechapel Rd. itself was not particularly squalid through most of this period—it was the warren of small dark streets branching from it that contained the greatest suffering, filth and danger, especially Dorset St. (now a private alley), Thrawl St., Berners St. (renamed Henriques St.), Wentworth St. and others.

	HistoryBuff.com -- History Library -- Another Whitechapel Murder
		At a quarter to 4 o'clock Police constable Neill, 97J, when in Buck's Row, Whitechapel, came upon the body of a woman lying on a part of the footway, and on stooping to raise her up in the belief that she was drunk he discovered that her throat was cut almost from ear to ear.
		Llewellyn, of Whitechapel Road, whose surgery is not above 300 yards from the spot where the woman lay, was aroused, and, at the solicitation of a constable, dressed and went at once to the scene.
		A woman of the neighbourhood saw her later, she told the police — even as late as 2:30 on Friday morning — in Whitechapel Road, opposite the church and at the corner of Osborne-street, and at a quarter to 4 she was found within 500 yards of the spot, murdered.

	The Whitechapel Club (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		The Whitechapel Club would live only five years, but in its short life it would become one of the most peculiar of all press clubs, as strange in its practices as it was in its name, and it would help to shape the image of the Chicago newspaperman that persisted well into the 20th century.
		But the Whitechapelers tended to believe that the society was shot through with hypocrisy, especially in that city of contrasts, so they apparently accepted the contradictions, just as they breathed in fresh lake air one moment and the stench of the stockyards the next.
		In later years, some who were members or guests remembered the Whitechapel Club as "the strangest organization known to man and has never had a duplicate"54 Certainly, it provided a great deal of fellowship to those who had passed through its oak doors and it furnished them with stories aplenty for their later years.

		Whitechapel was infested with about 80,000 artisans, labourers and derelicts, of whom "the better-of-the-poor", writes Gordon Honeycombe in his book: 'The Murders of the Black Museum', "as opposed to the very poor - earned about £1 a week".
		Violent crime was not uncommon in Victorian Whitechapel, and prior to 'Pretty Polly's' murder, on Tuesday 3 April 1888, several young men, one of whom had rammed a blunt instrument into her vagina with such force that it proved fatal, had assaulted a 45-year-old prostitute called Emma Smith.
		By day, Whitechapel teemed with life; at night, danger lurked in the shadows of unlighted back streets such as Buck's Row, and although the sense of terror still hung like a fog over the streets, new rumours about the killer circulated daily.

		The Whitechapel has a tradition of presenting lesser-shown but nonetheless canonical artists, and Blazwick cites its Eva Hesse (1979), Joseph Cornell (1981), and Frida Kahlo (1982) exhibitions as particular inspirations for those she'd like to initiate.
		To this end, Blazwick is contemplating transforming the neighboring Whitechapel Public Library into an open-access, Beaubourg-style art research center (an ambitious scheme originally proposed by Lampert in the mid-'90s).

	The Whitechapel Murders
		The Whitechapel Murders and those of Jack the Ripper are not generally one and the same.
		Within the Whitechapel Murders there was a group that demonstrated sufficient similarities to suggest that they were committed by the same person.
		One of the first well-documented instances of serial murder was thus identified and sensationalised in the media as the work of ‘Jack the Ripper’, nicknamed on the strength of a hoax letter sent to the Central News Agency and claiming responsibility for the killings.

		After the usual caution the prisoner made a further statement to the effect that the woman who bit him was in the street at the back of a lodging-house when seized with the fit.

		"Faces in the Crowd," writes Whitechapel director and co-curator Iwona Blazwick, "maps the way in which perceptions and representations of society itself have transformed, broadly speaking, from notions of 'the crowd', as a homogeneous body, to a heterogeneous one made up of individual subjectivities." Individual subjectivities were never absent.

		The Whitechapel Murderer may have written the letter/post card but there is no evidence to suppose that he did and the police seem convinced that they were the work of a journalist.
		Inside was half a human kidney and a letter from someone claiming to be the killer, and that it was part of the kidney he removed from the victim Eddowes.
		In a time before forensic science and even finger printing, the only way to prove someone committed a murder was to catch either him or her in the act, or get the suspect to confess.

		You have heard, probably, of Whitechapel needles; and the costermonger from whom you may occasionally have condescended to purchase vegetables would very likely inform you, were you to ask him, that he lives ‘down that way.’ Perhaps your impressions connected with Whitechapel refer vaguely to butchers, or, probably, to Jews, or possibly to thieves.

		Whitechapel is another location which has four platforms, a siding (actually two, but one is now decommissioned) a signal cabin and a multitude of possible 'moves' that can be made by trains.
		Here we are looking east and can see a C Stock train in platform 1, what is normally an eastbound platform, waiting to head westbound - as you can see the headlights are lit and the driver is in his cab waiting for the starting signal to clear.
		Taken from the east end of platform 3, again normally a westbound platform, the 'Wrong Road Starter' EN37 is just visible, being fixed to the wall of the footbridge structure.
