Tale recounts Master Roger Selby once in service to the Marquis of Worcester with echoes of Raglan legend.
Roger Selby, an eager youth in Lord Raglan's household, is chosen for a dangerous late night assignment. He guides a royal visitor through a hidden passage to Raglan’s closet, facing distrust and peril as Moonlight winds and wary stairways test his nerve and loyalty.
A noble page recounts the perilous pursuit of a traitor during the night at Raglan. King Charles I escapes a stabbing attempt, aided by the page who fights the assailant to the battlements and helps thwart the killer as soldiers advance. The king departs, leaving the narrator with a blue ribbon and the king’s George medal as heirlooms amid a countrywide memory of the incident.
