Lizzie Borden...
"Elizabeh Borden took an ax and gave her father forty whacks... And, when she saw what she had done, she gave her mother forty-one." --- Very popular rhyme made up at the time of Lizzie Borden's murder trial.
It was a scandalous murder trial in Fall River, Massachusetts. Elizabeth Borden was found not guilty. But, many folks thought she did it. She was a big girl, solemn of nature and secretive. During the trial she conducted herself with perfect decorum.
An excellent movie of the incident was made in 1975, starring Elizabeth Montgomery... (***WATCH THE FULL MOVIE, below) ;)
