London, June 25.
The identity of the woman whose body was recently taken piecemeal out of
the Thames has been established, several persons having recognized her by
the clothing in which the parts of her body were wrapped and by peculiar
scars upon the arms. She was Elizabeth Jackson, a frequenter of the common
lodging houses in Chelsea and virtually a prostitute. She was known to be
alive on May 31. The identification the theory that she was another victim
of Jack the Ripper.
