It is the From Hell letter that remains the most notorious to this day.
What Is The From Hell Letter and Why Is It Notorious? The From Hell letter was dated the 15th of October 1888. Therefore, the From Hell letter was dated on this day in history. The From Hell letter doesn't say the name 'Jack the Ripper'. But, it is a letter that is referring to the Whitechapel Murders. Specifically, the murders which happened on the 30th of September 1888. The murders which happened on the 30th of September 1888, were committed by Jack the Ripper. Those murders are known as 'The Double Event', as it was a night that Jack the Ripper had murdered two women.
The two women that Jack the Ripper murdered that night was Elizabeth Stride and Catherine Eddowes. Both women were murdered in the same hour, during the very early morning of the 30th of September 1888.
Part of Catherine Eddowes ear was found clipped off when the police found her after her murder. They had also found that Catherine Eddowes was missing a kidney after her murder. And that's where the From Hell letter comes in. The From Hell letter is perhaps the only authentic letter in the Whitechapel Murders case, in the sense, that there is good reason to suspect that this letter was from the killer himself. This is because the letter both references part of an ear being clipped off one of the women who were murdered in the Double Event. And, more terrifyingly, it is a letter that contained a package with it. That package had inside it half a human kidney. It's one thing to hoax a letter, but it's something far different when a human kidney is sent with the letter. It suggests that the From Hell letter is not just a hoax, but is a letter sent by the killer - Jack the Ripper. The From Hell letter reads: ''From hell. Mr Lusk, Sor I send you half the Kidne I took from one women prasarved it for you tother piece I fried and ate it was very nice. I may send you the bloody knife that took it out if you only wate a while longer signed Catch me when you can Mishter Lusk''
