Lizzie Borden took an axe
And gave her mother forty whacks.
When she saw what she had done,
She gave her father forty-one.

In 1892 Lizzie Borden stood accused of axe-murdering her parents in their Massachusetts home. News of the trial spread across the nation like wildfire, becoming the one of the first publically followed criminal cases in the United States.
One can visit the Borden house where the murders took place and enjoy their lovely bed and breakfast.
