Have you ever killed some one? Over a 100 years ago Lizzie's parents were brutally murdered by someone and the only person they focused on was the daughter lizzie borden. Lizzie Borden was the axe murderer no doubt about it because all the signs pointed to no other than Lizzie herself. The reason I think Lizzie killed her parents was because she didn't like her stepmother and thought if she didn't kill her father her father would think its her. Lizzie is a true mastermind to have gotten away with murder because there is no other explanation to Lizzie's parents brutal death.
This book is about love, deception, and desperation for freedom. Lizzie was in love with Drayle and she perceived his kindness as love. She began to think to herself after another character asked her if Drayle loved her: She loved him. He loved her. And even more, he was good to her.
In the midst of a terrible time of war between Loyalists and Patriots, sixteen year old Sybil Ludington helped save the lives of her family and fellow Patriot citizens. The British were trying to take over the city of Danbury, but this young, brave girl took matters into her own hands, assisting in ways no one would have imagined.

Being warned by her sister that men were charging toward their house, Sybil quickly took action fearing that the British would attack once they discovered her father was not home.
“Lizzie Borden took an axe, And gave her mother forty whacks, When she saw what she had done, She gave her father forty-one” (Linder). Lizzie Borden, daughter of Andrew and Sarah Borden, was born on July 19, 1860 in Fall River, Massachusetts. Her older sister Emma Borden was born on March 1, 1851. They lived a happy and normal life until the unexpected death of their mother, Sarah Borden. Three years later Andrew Borden was remarried to Abby Durfee Gray.
In the court of law, everyone is guilty until proven innocent. Thus, Hobart Ison was guilty when killing Hugh O’ Connor. Though by law Hobart was a murderer, many question that very decision. Though a killer, locals of urban Kentucky would argue that his actions are justifiable. Elizabeth Barret creates Stranger with a Camera as a tool to look into those justifications and see the reasons Ison murdered O’Connor.
It’s crazy to think a Sunday School teacher in her mid - 30’s murder her parents. Many pieces of evidence support my theory that Lizzie Borden is guilty of her parent’s murder. Some points that I will discuss later on involve how she got away with it, evidence that goes against her, and her behavior before and after the murder. As stated before, Lizzie Borden was a Sunday School teacher in her mid – 30’s, unmarried with no kids. So who would expect a sweet, innocent woman like that to commit such a harsh crime?
The murder of Andrew and Abby Borden has been referred to as an unsolved mystery for centuries. Investigators questioned a single suspect, commonly known as Lizzie Borden, the eldest daughter of Andrew Borden. After finding no physical evidence linking her to the murders, Lizzie was acquitted and the case was never opened again. Several sources have provided eye-opening facts that make me reconsider the true culprit. Lizzie Borden is the person guilty of both murders because of her contradictory testimony along with her alibi, the mental instability she displayed, and her strange behavior prior the murders.
As someone may have said, “Lizzie did it” or “It was totally Lizzie” is right. As some may say, the Lizzie Borden case must be quiet boring. Well, it’s wrong! Go into detail, who else would’ve burned a dress from old paint? Lizzie Borden, by the way, is a murder case that happened on August 4, 1892.
Lizzie Borden Imagine being famous for murdering two close family members with an axe. Lizzie Borden became well-known for being charged with the gruesome murder of her father and stepmother, on August 4th 1892. During this time, women were considered the “weaker” sex, and not capable of murder. However, there was evidence to prove Lizzie Borden was guilty.
The topic that I have chosen for my upcoming research paper is a comparison of the women in three literary works: Kate Chopin’s “The Story of an Hour,” Susan Glaspell’s Trifles, and Henrik Isben’s A Doll House. Specifically, I want to analyze the similarities between the five women—Louise Mallard, Minnie Wright, Mrs. Peters, Mrs. Hale, and Nora Helmer—such as their situations, motivations, and ultimately, the decisions at the end of their stories that stem from the same source: their society. I also want to compare the men in these stories, and how their similarities led to the stories’ outcomes just as much as the women’s. The decisions I am referring to are Louise’s death—which,
While reading one of Clare’s letters, the narrator doesn’t properly communicate the actual description of the message as it sends two different interpretations to the readers. Not to mention that the phone calls between Clare and Irene also fails to communicate both viewpoints as the narrator only mentions one side of the direct discourse. On that note, the direct and indirect discourses of their face to face conversation demonstrates two different conative discussions, giving us a better insight of their true characteristics. As the end approaches with a mysterious tragedy, we are to question Irene as her dialogue and interpretation ineffectively matches the reader’s perspective, due to her outlook bordering between accidental and intentional motives. With the characters and narrator using different methods of communication, such as the letters, phone calls, and in person conversations, it leads us to question their integrity and whether the discourse accurately represents the climactic fallouts of the
