METROPOLITAN POLICE
G Division
19 January 1889
I beg to report that on 25th Novr last Alfred Parent of 31 Rue Notre Dame, De Nazareth and 58 Rue Volka, Paris, and Bacons Hotel, Finsbury Square, age 54, height 5 feet 6 in, hair white, whiskers and moustache very grey, dress dark overcoat, do under and vest, black trousers, high hat, patent boots, was given into custody by Annie Cook, a Prostitute, who stated that Parent had offered her a sovereign to go with him for an immoral purpose, or 5 sovereigns
to sleep with him for the night, and as the amount offered was rather a large one the girl thought it was done for the purpose of getting her into a house to murder her, and gave him into custody.
On 28th December Joseph Denny of 64 Myddelton Square, Clerkenwell, age 20, height 5 feet 6 in, complexion fair, hair very curly, slight moustache, no whiskers, dress long dark overcoat with black astracan collar and cuffs, dark suit under, low shoes, brown soft felt hat, came to Old Street Station accompanied by PC 177A Wraight and John Robert Hardy and Thomas Hardy of 480 Kings Road, Chelsea, the two latter persons stated that they saw Denny accost two women in Houndsditch and thinking it suspicious, they followed him to Finsbury Pavement where they saw him accost another woman and having in mind the recent Whitechapel murders they called the PC who brought Denny to the station.
Enquiries were made respecting Denny which proved satisfactory and he was allowed to go.
