Jack The Ripper: The Hand Of A Woman - Plot & Excerpts
But while she had managed to kill the unfortunate drunken woman and cut her throat, either poor light, shortness of time, or perhaps both, had prevented her from completing her task. Eight days later, early on Saturday, 8 September, Lizzie Williams returned to Whitechapel. It was still dark on this cold but dry morning, though dawn was not far off. This was to be her final rehearsal, and now she was determined to kill a woman, and tear her uterus from her dead body. Annie Chapman was plump, shabbily dressed and merry with drink, though she was not as drunk as Mary Ann Nichols had been. Where Lizzie Williams met her in Whitechapel we do not know. All we can say for certain is that when they parted in the small backyard of a tenement building in Hanbury Street, Chapman was dead. We have no doubt that Lizzie Williams made her the same proposition that had worked so well with Nichols, and paid her to provide sexual services. Once again, no one would have noticed two women walking together, even during the early hours of the morning when there were few people about; a man on his own of almost any age would have been a different matter, and even a man and woman together might be stopped and questioned by the frequent patrols that policed Whitechapel, but one, two or even more women together would not have drawn particular attention.
