We Solve the Mystery of the Mary Celeste - The Year Is 1872

We have traveled back to 1872 to be the first ones to solve the mystery of the Mary Celeste ship that was discovered with no crew aboard but everything still in tact, Suffragist Susan B Anthony votes for the first time, Monet paints the first Impressionist painting, geologist Clarence King reveals the diamond hoax, and the Tichborne case is decided in London against claimant Arthur Orton.

Also descendent of the Quakers, Red is learning how to make friends and Bobby is trying to figure out who or what soiled his new couch.
