The victim was formally identified as Martha Tabram. The inquest heard an in-depth account of Martha's character and history, as well as the circumstances surrounding her death. The only important witness was Mary Connelly ("Pearly Poll"), who was wrapped in an old green shawl and speaking in a low, husky voice. The inquest heard her account of the Bank Holiday night out in Whitechapel with Martha and the two soldiers.
The inquest was the then brought to an end. === The Verdict === The jurors returned a unanimous verdict of '''wilful murder against some person or persons unknown'''. Martha’s death was registered two days later. == Conclusion == Martha's murderer was never identified. There's no solid proof pointing to any of the soldiers involved in the case. Many Ripper experts believe a soldier was involved in Martha's murder. This is partly why Martha is not considered to be one of Jack The Ripper's victims.
