An Unresolved East River Tragedy At Market Slip - 1877

Found this yesterday while looking for articles about Ann or
Annie Campbell.
I do not know whether it's her.
If it were Ann, she would have been 36 or 37 at the time.
One clip has her living at 338 Water Street and another at 336.
One article
refers to the missing friend as Lizzie Crossman and another as
Lizzie Rushmore.
no surprise that the papers effed this up.
The star on the map designates 336 and 338 Water Street.
I can't find any follow-ups to the case. No idea if it was
Campbell's friend.
No idea if a trial took place. No idea whether the case was
resolved, which it
doesn't appear to have been.
I'm sure some will notice the similarity with the Lizzie Elliott
incident in April 1891.
