Text
Dear Boss,
I have arrived in your city, as London is too warm for me just now, so that Belfast _____ had better look out, for I intend to commence operations on Saturday night. I have spotted some nice fat ones who will cut up well. I am longing to begin, for I love my work.
Yours, &c.,
Jack the Ripper.
Notes
Contained several blotches, apparently "in imitation of blood."
