When I discovered that my English class had to do a Research Paper, I became horrified. I thought students only did this when they were finishing graduate school not when they were starting their first year in college. All I knew about research papers was that there is an overwhelming amount of research to do. In my efforts to complete this obstacle and not bore myself to sleep with researching, I wanted to do an interesting topic, but I had no idea where to begin. I spent hours going through a great number of subjects and people, but once I found topic remotely interesting, I could not find much information on the Library of Congress website. Therefore, I decided to choose one word that would hopefully lead me to an interesting topic. I

Fredrick Abberline, though not the most experienced man on the police force, was in charge of all detectives that were on the ground during the Ripper investigation. He did not believe the theories that many news reporters, or just fanatics, were spouting. Abberline preferred to go by the facts and the evidence. Though Abberline later changed his mind, he initially thought that George Chapman, Annie Chapman’s brother, was Jack. Abberline’s second in command, Robert Anderson, who had previously been in charge of every murder investigation prior to the Whitechapel murders. Anderson described Jack as such; a sexual manic of a virulent type (Douglas 96). Anderson initially believed that the killer was a polish immigrant, Aaron Kosminski. In 1988,

Since the capture of Daley and the burning of Hall's old home, Ben Hall's whereabouts were continuing to frustrate Sir Frederick Pottinger, who was throwing all of his resources into finding Ben Hall's haunts, gleaning any information, no matter how insignificant. The last report of Hall was in company with Susan Pryor, who it would seem was escorted to the Fish River district were the gang through Gilbert had friends and family and where Susan Pryor and the child could reside in the short term or may even have moved possibly further north to Wellington, as Mary's birth was believed to have been registered there in late March 1863, after which Susan returned to Lambing Flat. Pottinger undaunted was once more on the trail and sent this telegram

Although Chillingworth doesn’t know if Dimmesdale is the one who committed the sin with Hester, he still interviews Dimmesdale as if he is a suspect for this sin:“It is as well to have made this step,” said Roger Chillingworth to himself, looking after the minister with a grave smile. “There is nothing lost. We shall be friends again anon. But see, now, how passion takes hold upon this man, and hurrieth out of himself! As with one passion, so with another! He hath done a wild thing ere now, this pious Master Dimmesdale, in the hot passion of his heart!”(125). Earlier in the book when Chillingworth is talking to Hester, Hawthorne describes a smile that the physician has that makes Hester wonder if he is like the Black Man. This smile is displayed again when Dimmesdale rushes out of the room. Chillingworth’s smiles seem to emulate his obsession. Everytime he is trying to find out who committed this sin, or even thinks about it, he smiles. This smile is described as grave, which means, giving cause for alarm. Chillingworth has said that he wants to ruin the soul of whoever committed the sin with Hester. The description of this smile was not meaningless; Chillingworth could already be suspecting Dimmesdale of this sin, and even plotting his revenge. Chillingworth also talks about passion, which is interesting because passion has been talked about when Hester is in the picture.

Plot is defined as, "the authors arrangement of incidents in a story it is the organizing principle that controls the controls the order of events (Meyer,64)." The element of plot is heavily relied on in the short story, "The Killings" by Andre Dubus. The plot which is completely made inside the imagination of an author (Meyer,64), gives the audience important insight to people, places, and events in the story (Meyer,64) . "The Killings" provides a somewhat conventional plot pattern, where the character is confronted with a problem and is then led into a climax, which late leads to the resolution of the story (Meyer,65). The conventional plot is easy to follow and serves as a basis for movies and other

In contrast to Dimmesdale, there was Chillingworth, the legal husband of the woman Dimmesdale sinned with. Disguised as a healer, Chillingworth waits and observes, trying to discover the identity of the father of Pearl, the child of Hester. When he discovers that Dimmesdale was the lover, he moves in with Dimmesdale to torture him. Chillingworth uses his position as a healer to do the opposite of his occupation, to hurt Dimmesdale’s mind, tormenting him psychologically, and ultimately poisoning his mind. He tortured Dimmesdale throughout the whole novel and not once showed remorse for his horrible sin. He was never confused about his sin; he never questioned if it was right or wrong. This was a result of his religious views; he wasn 't religious at all in fact, he was referenced as the Devil.

The second example of Dimmesdale is the worst sinner than Chillingworth is when he decides to keeping his identity as a secret. Dimmesdale does not tell anyone that he’s a Hester’s lover and when given the chance to admit his sin, he let it go so many times . There is a time Hester asks him for help when the old minister tries to take Pearl away from her, she says “Thou wast my pastor, and hadst charge of my soul, and knows me better than these men can. I will not lose my child! Speak for me! Thou knows,—for thou hast sympathies which these men lack!—thou knows what is in my heart, and what are a mother’s rights, and how much the stronger there are when that mother has but her child and the scarlet letter! Look thou to it! I will not lose the child! Look to it!” (105). At that time there is an opportunity that he could tell everyone the truth and stand up for them, but he chooses to hide it instead to admit what he has done and allow everyone to learn from his imperfection. He is the worst sinner because he is a coward that he decides not to confess to everyone even though he has so many opportunities.

In the seventeenth century, murders were verified by the examination of witnesses who claimed people were murdered and supernatural happenings, such as corpses bleeding, ghosts, and dreams verified if the said person was the guilty murderer (4). The main focus of this article is an explanation of the examined accounts and also the comparison of another murder subject matter, printed murder pamphlets (4). These murder pamphlets made it so the destiny of the murderers was able to get through to the folks of the communities as well as to preach and exemplify how God's provision confused the opposition of Heaven and earth (4-5). The role of religion and more so, supernatural events go hand-in-hand when dealing with murder and the murderer (1-5).

It was probably true to the others. In addition, a reason why the police were not to blame for not capturing Jack the Ripper is because the areas where the victims were killed were known to be a resort of prostitute and dark secluded streets, as Source E refers to the streets as "…narrow, dark and crooked lanes…", were ideal for business. Whilst in the act of this business they were completely vulnerable to attack. Before she could utter a cry, the Ripper seized her by the throat. He strangled her, at least into insensibility and lowered her to the ground like Source C states in the report on the body of Elizabeth Stride "...

When Chillingworth enters town, Dimmesdale’s reputation begins to change because the people believe that Dimmesdale is associating with the ‘black man’- Chillingworth. The community has seen that Dimmesdale’s association with Chillingworth has had a negative impact, and that causes his reputation to suffer. From the point in time when Chillingworth entered the town, the people have seen Dimmesdale become thinner and more nervous and darkness consume Chillingworth, leading to this change in reputation. Dimmesdale has also started holding his hand over his heart frequently, leading to the communal belief that the A was having more of an effect, especially through its effect on Chillingworth and Dimmesdale: “To sum up the matter, it grew to be a widely diffused opinion, that the Reverend Arthur Dimmesdale, like many other personages of especial sanctity, in all ages of the Christian world, was haunted either by Satan himself, or Satan’s emissary, in the guide of old Roger Chillingworth” (112). By the end of the novel, Dimmesdale’s reputation was at it’s lowest point due to the revelation that he was Hester’s co-adulterer. The people were shocked when this was revealed, as “the multitude, silent till then, broke out in a strange, deep voice of awe and wonder, which could not as yet find utterance, save in this murmur that rolled so heavily after the departed spirit” (222). The conclusion to the novel discussed the repercussions of Dimmesdale’s

Some people may think that Dr. Samuel Mudd was playing along with Booths act, however Mudd had no idea about the crime he was asleep in his house when the crime had happened. The people who were in the house with him didn’t know ,they were all asleep. If Mudd was asleep he couldn’t have known about the crime neither any of his family that were in the house with him.

The next innocent suspect was Elizabeth Howe. Elizabeth Howe was a blind Ipswich woman who tenderly took care of her husband with a kind soul. Her neighbors foolishly accused her of causing their youngest daughter and cows die, which Elizabeth truthfully denied. Soon more people had their animals injured, in which they interpreted as a supernatural sign of revenge. In court, her own brother-in-law, Captain John accused her of killing his sow and inflicting pain upon him and making his hand not able to work. Elizabeth had nothing to do with this, so she testified “God knows I am innocent of anything of this nature” (National Geographic Channel 2011). Even though her witness vouched for her and her character she was found guilty (National Geographic Channel 2011).
