Catherine "Kate" Eddowes (1842 – 1888), also known as Kate Conway and Kate Kelly, was a prostitute living in 19th-century London, England, known for being the fourth victim of the notorious serial killer Jack the Ripper during the murders in Whitechapel.

Biography[edit | edit source]

Early life[edit | edit source]

Catherine was born in Graisley Green, Wolverhampton, and had two successive common-law husbands. In 1881, while married to her second spouse John Kelly and being unable to pay the rent for Cooney's common lodging-house of Spitalfields, Eddowes took to prostitution in one of Lady Olwyn Owers' brothels.[1]

Despite this, Catherine maintained a scholarly and jolly outlook in life, albeit with a fierce temper, as her friends described her.[1]

Murder[edit | edit source]

On the afternoon of 30 September 1888, during the midst of the Whitechapel murders, the brutally mutilated supposed body of Catherine was discovered in Mitre Square, just hours after the body of Jack's third victim, Elizabeth Stride, was found. However, an investigation by Master Assassin Evie Frye suggested that the real Eddowes and Stride may have in fact survived, and that her brother Jacob—in an attempt to end Jack's reign of terror—had sent two of his initiates from the British Brotherhood of Assassins to take the intended victims' places, due to the evidence of an Assassin ring found at Eddowes' crime scene.[2]
