Here again, I was reading thru some old posts, and came accross this post,written by Harry on Sunday, Aug 8 2004:

"Here's another one of those little things in the Borden case that has me curious. It appeared in several newspapers around Aug 10 1892: 'DiDid Andrew J. Borden, after living almost to the period alloted to a man, have a presentiment that he would sunddenly be taken ill or meet death? The remark he made to his daughter Emma just before she left home to go to Fairhaven indicates that he had something on his mind, for he was never known to make statement before. Notwithstanding the numerous times they had been away from he said, Emma, if I should want you home immedately while you are away, where shall I find you? His inquiry had a pronounced effect on his daughter, and she inquired why he asked the question. He remarked: 'Nothing in particular, only I feel that I would like to know in case anything should happen' Emma gave him the required information and apparently he felt lmuch better because of it."

Now, I am just wandering if he didn't trust Lizzie? I mean with all that was going on in the house. They were all not feeling well, Lizzie and Emma weren't talking to Abby. I am just thinking maybe he might have been thinking that Lizzie might just snap and do something crazy, like kill Abbey or something.

Just spit balling here, too. :roll:

I believe there was something going on or some sort of tension in the family that has never surfaced yet, Snokks. Andrew may have had a premonition that Lizzie was up to something. Whatever it was I can't put my finger on it. I feel that not only are we trying to put all the pieces together in this puzzle but there are pieces missing, it seems. Whatever it was I'm sure it was about money.

Could you please give the link to the Topic? Thanks!
I guess you typed what Harry wrote as a transcription, and not a copy/paste, right?
