Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Only an Ensign, Vol. 2 of 3: A Tale of the Retreat From Cabul
Audley Trevelyan had not yet come up country, as he had been landed on the Sick list at Bombay. The young ladies knew well the story of Con stance's alleged marriage, and Denzil's consequent claim to rank; but the tale seemed strange and mysterious, and good taste caused them to be Silent; and to keep -ia the Cantonments and Residency at least what they deemed to be the secret of Denzil, who was an especial favourite with them both; but he never took them into his confidence, though he had taken his friend Waller, one day when they were on guard together at the arsenal and commis sariat fort. On that occasion but little passed, and it proved a guide for the future conduct of Denzil. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
