Old Timey Crimey Bonus: Mary Avery, the Littlest Gang Leader

Kristy tells Amber the story of Mary Avery, a little girl with the best nickname ever. Mary tore up the streets of San Francisco in the late 1800s, and in doing so she stole our hearts--and lots of other stuff. 
Note that our Patrons got even more from this episode, as the tale of Mary Avery was shorter than preferred--so the second half, in which Kristy regales Amber with fascinating tidbits from the old timey newspapers, is just for our patrons. You, too, can be a patron for just $5 a month, over on Patreon!
