Hi Stan
Was he in uniform? Was he nervous, or did he appear to have some busines there? Was he cocky? Flat cap? or was he tiptoeing about, like a lost-boy, as if he feared for his life?
What colour was the brick? Did the entrance have any pillars?
5 ft 2 is small. Around age 11-13?
Was there anything in his hand?
Sometimes we get distinct impressions in dreams, almost as if we see a situation in the dream and a type of sixth sense narrates it.
The fact you recall the numbers is extraordinary. :-)
What was the time of year?
You lot stop watching and laughing,  I have my reasons. |

Hi Belinda,
I'd say no younger than 14. No uniform or hat as I recall. This was about 20 years ago. Rather nonchalant in demeanor. I don't recall any pillars and the brick might have been gray or it might have been stone rather than brick. I don't think there was anything in his hand. It's hard to say what time of year it was except that it didn't appear to be winter.

Hi all,
Regarding the resistance to the idea that JtR could have been a teenager, The A-Z lists one Clarence Simm as a suspect and he was a teen at the time of the murders so I'm not the first suggest that possibility. Simm did not die until 1951.
Best regards,
Stan |

P.S.
The topic has been brought up before in a generic fashion here on Casebook as well.

Very interesting Stan.
I believe you have had an extraordinary dream! But he isn't the ripper. |

If I'd dreamed an as yet unknown name, that would have been extraodinary.

Hi all,
My article in this month's Ripperologist gives a few more details on this topic.

Stan,
I agree with you in not placing any stock in the content of your dream but I am curious about one thing: In your dream, how did you know that this young chap was Jack?

Hi Andy,
It was just intuition which may sound silly but it was a dream so logic is out the window.

Well, I saw the Ripper drinking a pina colada at Trader Vic's. . and his hair was perfect.  |

Great song, Erin - but wouldn't "Excitable Boy" be more appropriate to the thread ?
