Marie Ellen Bailes was found dead in a parcel in a lavatory in St Georges Road, Elephant and Castle.
She was covered in sand as though she had been buried. The parcel was seen to have been left by a nervous man in a cloth cap who had put it on the floor and run off. However, a doctor said that he did not think that the person that had left the parcel had been the murderer.
