Limerick, Ireland
Wednesday, 5th September 1888
The police have received information respecting the Whitechapel murder, which they hope will lead to arrest shortly.
The last Whitechapel murder - the third that has taken place within a brief period in that notorious quarter of the big city - remains shaded, like the others, in mystery. The belief obtains that the three crimes are the work of the same hand. As yet the police have obtained no clue, although the services of the most experienced detectives that Scotland Yard can produce have been requisitioned.
