"She is on board of our warship, the Green Dragon."
"You are positive of this?"
"I swear it!" And Hang Chang beat upon his forehead with his hand.
"Where is the Green Dragon now?"
"Many miles from here."
"I asked where?"
"I cannot tell exactly. She sailed from Chesapeake Bay southward to the coast of Cuba."
"Is she with other warships?"
"No, she is alone, for with the President's daughter on board, it was thought best by our admiral not to let her go into any fights."
At this Oscar drew a long breath. At least for the present this lovely girl was safe.
