My eye caught a couple of errors, otherwise it's pretty good. Who compiled the list?
Here are the corrections, if the submitter would be interested:
#4-- I asked him how he felt. He said he should lie down. I asked him if he thought he should have a nap. He said he would try to.-- Site quote
I asked him how he felt. He said “About the same.” He said he should lie down[.] I asked him if he thought he should have a nap. He said he should try to. 85[42] Inquest actual quote, underlined left out.
#21
I think he came to the front door and rang the bell, and I think Maggie let him in, and he said he had forgotten his key; so I think she must have been down stairs. 61[18]--underlined left out
#5th from the bottom
Oh, Mrs. Churchill, do come over, someone has killed father.--No such quote
#3rd from the bottom
She told me she had had a note, somebody was sick,...65[22]--needs dots at end -partial
#last one
...when I first came down stairs, for two or three minutes I went down cellar to the water closet. 63[20]-- need dots in front- partial
--Since I started I figured I would include the ones that needed dots as parts left out, tho it may seem to be minor.

I really don't know who compiled the list, Kat.
I just googled it...
It's good you have a watchful eye, though

I have an innate sense of what is not right in what is written about this case, plus I'm a fact-checker.
I'm lucky to know immediately when something is off.
I'm probably an asset here and at the same time it probably bugs you all.

Regarding #5 from the bottom:
Oh, Mrs. Churchill, do come over, someone has killed father.
It was Mrs. Churchill who said this is what Lizzie said, not Lizzie herself. She says it in the Inquest, Preliminary and Trial.

Those quotes from Lizzie were going along fine and then Bam! There was this oddity that Lizzie herself never says in her Inquest testimony tho the title is "Lizzie Andrew Borden Quotes."
It was as if another person quickly added that one without checking.
Weird!

That was when Harry's Avatar was one of those TV Cavemen. Now he tells me they will have their own show!

I won't be watching!
