  • Famed Biographer Charles Higham dies leaving unfinished Lizzie manuscript

    May 30, 2012 /

    Celebrated author, biographer and renaissance man, Charles Higham has died at the age of 81. He will probably be best remembered for his sometimes scathing biographies of world figures and celebrities. Two years ago Mr. Higham called to discuss his current project, a theory book on the Borden case.  He thought he had come up with something new and exciting.  His thought was that Emma and John Morse were thick in the plot to do away with the Bordens.  I suggested he come to Fall River to get a better perspective on the crime scene, the city, and the circumstances. He adamantly refused to consider a trip, which is unfortunate.  He also seemed dismayed that this idea of Morse and Emma was far from being a new theory.  He never called again and the manuscript remained dormant on the shelf.  Was he discouraged that he had not solved the crime?  One wonders if his manuscript will now ever be published.

And old time friends
and twilight plays
And starry nights
and sunny days.
Come trooping up
the misty ways
When my fire burns low.

What are Warps & Wefts?

One set of threads is fastened from top to bottom of the loom. These vertical threads are called the warp. Threads that cross from side to side, over and under the warp, are called the weft. Together, the warp and the weft are the substance of the cloth created. Fall River was once called the Spindle City and was a top textile city in the Northeast.
