The Wealthy Resident of Grosvenor Square

[A.P. Wolf]

October 27th 1888, 'The Atchison Daily Globe':

'The London police now have a theory that satisfies them and claim to have a particular individual in view and to possess corroborative evidence in support of their theory. He has been repeatedly tracked and traced, and is a well known and wealthy resident of Grosvenor Square, the most fashionable quarter of London. A sensation of immense magnitude is expected in connection with this matter.'

The clock was ticking, the clock is still ticking.
Now who lived in Grosvenor Square?

Hey, I don't think I've seen this one yet. Pretty cool. Weren't most residents of Grosvenor Square wealthy though?

Yours truly,

Tom Wescott

I believe the Saunderson's may have had a residence in Grosvenor Square, which, if they did, sort of squares the circle.
We have to remember that young Saunderson was placed in a private asylum very shortly after this report; some believe it may have actually been on the same night as the murder of Kelly; from whence he emerged years later to kill an unfortunate by cutting her throat; and hence went off to play billiards for the rest of his life at Broadmoor with Thomas.
Both keen gardeners, I bet they fought like buggery over the pruning knife for the roses.
It was a good year for the roses.
