PUBLIC LEDGER, Philadelphia, June 21, 1893

  • Lizzie Borden found not guilty
  • Woman hatchet murderer
  • Fall river, Massachusetts

The entire last column on the front page and carrying over to the back page is a report with heads: "LIZZIE BORDEN FREE" "The Jury Rendered A Verdict Of Not Guilty" "The Finding Caused Great Excitement" "Spectators Cheered & Waved Their Handkerchiefs" "No Attempt to Stop The Demonstration" "Argument Of the District Attorney Evidently Not Convincing" plus various subheads throughout, including: "The Hatchet" "I Am Innocent" "Not Guilty" and more.

Complete in 16 pages, foxing across the central fold otherwise in uncommonly nice condition.
