One exceedingly dramatic incident, that was long afterward remembered by both Arthur and Alice, furnishes the plot of our present story. Jack Munroe, Alice's brother and Arthur's friend, had joined the Northern army and, as the Munroe home chanced to lie on neutral territory, between the opposing forces, it was not surprising that the fortunes of battle should, one day, bring both Jack and Arthur, with their respective troops, face to face on the Munroe grounds. During the ensuing conflict Jack was wounded and in a critical moment was thrust into a large closet by his frightened sister, Alice. Later Arthur was forced to take refuge in the same closet. This embarrassing situation became worse when Arthur's troops located Jack and took him prisoner. Arthur, in command of the situation, naturally found himself torn between two fires. On the one hand was his love for Alice, on the other, his sworn duty to his flag. Necessity, the mother of invention, did not desert him in this climax, and so, by an ingenuous plan, he managed to allow Jack to escape, at the same time preserving his own dignity and remaining true to his trust.
