Dear Chief- -
We've done it. Carmen Sandiego is in Hoosegow, locked up tighter than bedbug. I tracked her to a little southwestern town in 1800's. She was trying to swipe Pecos River. Nabbed her just in time. This time, she'll never, repeat never, escape.
Busy month. Reported to Philadelphia, 1752. Somebody snatched Liberty Bell. Suspect found to be Lucinda Boltz, auto mechanic, chauffeur and Carmen's right-hand woman. I collared her, now she's in lockup, too.
Next I traveled to 1927. Tracked down Marty Graw, Who has Heisted Charles Lindbergh's plane, the Spirit of St. Louis. Had him, but forgot to get a warrant. Courts released him. Was my face ever red. It won't happen again. I promise.
I'm, off to round up rest of gang. A tricky bunch. New reference book, "What Happened When," is a big help. Tells who, when, sometimes even why.
Duty calls. Say hello to all. Give Stretch a scratch behind the ears for me.
Respectfully, Tenderfoot Chris
P.S. New Chronoskimmer 450SL time machine running like a champ!
