on the way

 Sometimes, on our way through the world, 

we meet someone who touches our heart 

in a way others don't. — Philip Reeve

JACK THE RIPPER 1888

The Jack the Ripper murders occurred in the East End of London in 1888 and.  The Whitechapel Murderer was a threat to a very small section of the community in a small part of London but the crimes had a huge impact on society as a whole.

Focusing the attention of the press and the public at large on the streets and people of one of London's poorest and most crime-ridden quarters, Jack the Ripper managed to expose the sordid underbelly of Victorian society and, in so doing, he helped create an awareness amongst the wealthier citizens of London of the appalling social conditions that had been allowed to develope.
