This morning's prayers extol the activity of the South Hempstead (
sic) police and detectives in the progress they have made in the
directions of conclusively proving the identity of the murderer of
Mrs. Hobbs, and compare their efforts with those of the police of
the Whitechapel district in their search for Jack the Ripper, to
the disparagement and ridicule of the latter guardians of the peace
and security of the public.
