ABBERLINE FREDERICK: (1843-1929) British Chief Inspector with the London Metropolitan Police, a prominent figure in the investigation into the Jack the Ripper murders of 1888. A fascinating Manuscript Signed, F G Abberline, twelve pages, 4to, n.p., n.d. The holograph manuscript is headed Reminiscences of Ex-Detective Chief Inspector F G Abberline C.I.D. Scotland Yard and is entitled Three Successive Seasons, or twelve months, behind the scenes at Monte Carlo. Abberline writes, in part, 'Monte Carlo in appearance is simply a paradise and one can understand the many thousands of wealthy people flocking there every winter. The season proper lasts only about 4 or 5 months although the casino is open all the year round….The best and richest in Society can be seen there, also the lowest that can find money to get there. The English thieves have the credit there - whether they deserve it or not - of being the smartest and the English visitors frequenting the casino were being robbed by a number of the light fingered gentry at the time I was called upon to visit the Principality. The Vice Consul there at the time in consequence of so many complaints really compelled the casino authorities to employ me. On my arrival in Monte Carlo I found I had got into a very hot shop and instead of one man tackling such a crowd of English thieves and blackguards I ought to have had the support of five or six other officers. However the news travelled very quickly amongst them that I meant business, and it was astonishing the effect it had in making a clearances. Monte Carlo Mixtures. Monte Carlo Society is in itself an interesting study. A more cosmopolitan lot you never met. The prude who when at home interferes with everybody else's business is a very different person there. She is giddy and gay and do not be surprised if you see her at the Café Riche dancing till the early hours in the morning with men and women just as naughty. The faces of the players too. Sitting and standing round the gaming tables are quite a study to watch some hopeful others despondent, many uncertain. Then again the gambling rooms were occasionally enlivened by two well known ladies who had the credit of endeavouring to cut one another out in the quantity and quality of their dresses and jewels. Both were young and considered very pretty….Both were decked with jewels to the tune of £80,000 to £100,000. They each employed men to escort them from the casino to their various hotels, as a protection until their jewels could be placed in the safe at their destination….Amongst sharks and adventurers you find countesses rubbing shoulders with cocottes and noblemen and the elite of society elbow every rogue from all the sinks of Europe that can find the money to get there….Fair dealing and perfect honesty of the Bank are beyond doubt, but at times scenes occur through some of the croupiers I am afraid standing in with a certain class who visit the rooms for the express purpose of cheating….I refer only to some of the croupiers as the majority protect the players, but a few I feel convinced stand in with these money grabbing women….I may as well give a little explanation of what is called “Breaking the Bank”. A successful player may follow his run of luck to such an extent - as I have occasionally seen - that before the bank at the particular table can pay the amount he has won the Chef de Partie has to send upstairs to the Chief office for more money. It is only the work of a few minutes, but that is what is called “Breaking the Bank of Monte Carlo”….' Fixed together to the top left hand corner and with some light age wear, most evident to the head of the final page, only just affecting a few words of text but not the signature, about VG As the present manuscript suggests, Abberline worked for three seasons as a private enquiry agent in Monte Carlo before before taking over the European Agency of the famous Pinkerton National Detective Agency of America, for whom he worked for 12 years
