Watching the batons for corruption had not been a reassuring analysis of the situation & most just looked ready to swing. None seemed interested in listening, much less helping. - ThreadSky

What if Jack had an accomplice that was never mentioned, especially by the press, detective Sherlock Holmes had discussed the relative theorem with John Watson & they were "up in arms" about what he could be doing, elsewhere.

Holmes had left a scribble on his desk, a note, a reminder, & Watson had it in his other hand pocket. He pulled the clue out & looked at it, regardless of public discretion or etiquette. He stopped on the walkway right where he stood & stared at the slip of paper.

Strangely, it was a drawing of a six-point star. Baffled, Watson slipped the treasure back into his pocket & bumped into a man coming his way, he didn't know why he was losing it but he just kept walking. Watson climbed onto his buggy & headed to the countryside, he needed some air.

He could do Holmes no good in this state. He would not stay long but Holmes had taught him it's a good place to start so Watson obeyed his instinct. The cemetery was well maintained & the grave of Jack's most recent victim was surprising relaxing.

Standing there in front of the headstone, Watson remembered Holmes' atheist teaching that once you die or pass away, it's over. There is no afterlife. There is no coming back from the dead. There is no ghost of the dead. There is no speaking to the dead.

It was a "sobering" thought of how precious & valuable life was. Somehow, he had to believe that Holmes was alive. No one could stop this killer except Sherlock Holmes. Jack the Ripper was on a rampage, & it seemed that he had only recently found "ripping" as a hobby & pastime.
