== The body in Berner Street ==
On 30th September, 1888 , at approximately 12.45am, a Hungarian immigrant, Israel Schwartz, was walking along Berner Street when he witnessed a "broad-shouldered" man ahead of him attacking a woman who was standing near the entrance to a dark courtyard called Dutfield’s Yard.
Schwartz was frightened and crossed to the other side of the street, where he then noticed a second man standing at the corner lighting a pipe.
