Here's why! No mention of what happened to her. Sadie Farrell [1] (fl. 1869) was an American criminal, gang leader and river pirate known under the pseudonym Sadie the Goat. She first came to prominence as a vicious street mugger in New York's "Bloody" Fourth Ward. Upon encountering a lone traveler, she would headbutt men in the stomach and her male accomplice would hit the victim with a slung-shot and rob them. Sadie, according to popular underworld lore, was engaged in a longtime feud with rival female bouncer Gallus Mag who once bit off her ear in a bar fight.... Her ear was later returned to her by Gallus Mag, who displayed it in a pickled jar at her bar; Sadie afterward kept it in a locket and wore around her neck for the rest of her life. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sadie_the_Goat Jan 25 10, 6:52 PM
