I appeared to think a moment. "I know two such—one in the Cavalry, the other in the Engineers."
"Describe them, please."
I showed surprise. "Does Your Royal Highness——?"
She cut in. "That is just what she is trying to find out."
"Yes?"
"Whether either of them is the Captain Smith I have in mind."
"Both would be much honored."
"I am not so sure as to the one I mean. He was a very conceited fellow."
I gritted back a smile. "It must have been the Engineer," I said. "He's a good deal of a prig."
She bent over the roses. "Oh, I wouldn't call him just that."
