From the Paper:
"Lizzie Borden took an axeAnd gave her mother forty whacks.
And when she saw what she had done,
She gave her father forty-one.
So, goes the old verse that immortalized Lizzie Borden as one of history's most notorious murderers, fair or not. For most people, that ends the story. Some also probably know that she won acquittal on all charges, thus becoming in many minds the O.J. Simpson of her time. Indeed, just as the Simpson case involved issues other than murder (such as race), Borden's story provides revealing details about the lives of women in 19th century America. This paper will examine the status of women in America during the previous century by analyzing the life and trial of the infamous Lizzie Borden."
