The German recognized Hal almost immediately, in spite of his British uniform. He stepped forward, and, with a sneering smile, said: "How do you do, Captain Dersam?" General Von Kluck, who had been looking silently at the two lads, turned to the officer. "You know these prisoners?" he questioned. "Well, I know one of them," was the reply. "That is, I thought I did once.
It seems that I was mistaken." "Explain yourself." "This," said the German, pointing to Hal, "is the young man to whom I told you I delivered the dispatches intended for you. He represented himself to me as Captain Dersam, of your staff. Later we found Captain Dersam gagged and bound on the banks of the Marne. Therefore, this officer must be a traitor."
"I can't seem to place you," he said. "Is your regiment here?" "No," returned Hal, in excellent German, without the slightest accent. "I am attached to General Von Kluck's command. I came here with him to-day." "Oh," said the German officer, "then you are on his staff?" "Yes." "In that event I am in luck. Evidently you are the very man I have been sent to seek. You are Captain Dersam?"
