Prescott would
conduct himself when in command."
Lieutenant Armstrong then related all of the particulars that
he had seen of Jordan's conduct.
"Then I am very glad that Mr. Prescott reported Mr. Jordan," replied
the commandant of cadets. "Mr. Jordan is a first classman and
should be above any such conduct. We will confine Mr. Jordan
to his company street for one week; and on Wednesday and Saturday
afternoons during the continuance of the encampment, he shall
walk punishment tours."
Then the commandant of cadets had passed the word for Cadet Adjutant
Filson, to whom he had entrusted the order that the reader has
already seen delivered.
But Jordan, unable to realize that he had proved himself unfit
as a soldier found his hatred of Dick Prescott growing with every
step of the march that carried the cadet corps to dinner at the
cadet mess hall.
"Prescott may feel mighty big and proud now!" growled the disgruntled
one. "But will he---when I get through with him?"
CHAPTER II
JORDAN REACHES OUT FOR REVENGE
"Hello, there, Stubbs!" called Jordan from the doorway of his
tent.
"Oh, that you, Jordan?" called Stubbs.
"Yes; come in, won't you?"
Cadet Stubbs, of the first class, looked slightly surprised, for
he had never been an intimate of this particular cadet.
"What's the matter?" asked Stubbs, pushing aside the tent flap
and stepping into the tent.
