Chapter XXV
SAVING A KING. Clif reached the gangway ladder just as Juanita Windom stepped down to the deck, accompanied by another girl of her own age. When she espied the young cadet she blushed slightly, and held out her hand, with a winning smile. “This is indeed a pleasure, Miss Windom,” he said, with even more earnestness than the remark warranted. “To me, Mr. Faraday,” the fair young girl replied, laughingly.
