SOURCE E: Part of an article published in a local newspaper after the murders of Polly Nicholls and Annie Chapman

Quote:

My informant demanded at that time that the police force on the spot should be strengthened and some kind of order created on the streets by night. He warned that murder would ensue if matters were left as they were. He was referred from one police office to another, but without making any impression.
Then came the first murder. He went again to the police and warned them that there would be more mischief unless they could clear the streets of the open and defiant ruffianism, which continued to make night hideous. Then came another murder.
The main thoroughfares of Whitechapel are connected by a network of narrow, dark and crooked lanes, every one apparently containing some headquarters of infamy. The sights and sounds are an apocalypse of evil.
