Biography[edit | edit source]

Polly, along with other of Jack the Ripper's five victims, worked in one of the brothels run by Lady O. She shared a room with Nellie, another prostitute.[1] However, in Autumn of 1888, the Master Assassin Jacob Frye requested her to leave the borough and replaced her with an initiate from the British Brotherhood of Assassins.[2]

She had made passing acquaintance with Detective Frederick Abberline of the Metropolitan Police Service, and so when another woman's body was discovered and publicly thought to be Nichols, Abberline knew otherwise, and revealed as much to Evie Frye on her return from India. During her investigation, she found the initiate's Assassin ring, proving Abberline's suspicions that the victim was another woman altogether.[3]
