| The Borden Murders and Their
Aftermath, as reported in the New Bedford Evening Standard One of the foremost and complete newspapers that covered the Borden
tragedy of Fall River, Massachusetts, was the New Bedford Evening
Standard. Almost all books on the Borden case draw heavily from its
pages. Rich in detail, these news reports capture the flavor and
atmosphere from the day of the crime to Lizzie's ultimate acquittal.

Reading these pages is like being transported back in time to 1892-93
Fall River and New Bedford, Mass. Every attempt was made to make
an exact duplicate of each daily article.

hand about the excitement and drama surrounding the daily happenings
