Of course, the Army Board ordered a strict investigation, which was made--and told nothing. All that was found was a few bits of broken glass in one room, and an "examination paper" in another. Indian was hauled up, terrified, to explain; he described his hazing, but steadfastly refused names--which was good West Point etiquette--he vowed he knew nothing about the fire--which was the truth--also West Point etiquette. And since Indian was mum, and there was no one else to investigate, the investigation stopped, and the affair remained a West Point mystery--a mystery to all but three.
