Horse Guards

Throckmorton returned to London. He had with him a button from the murder victim's jacket in the hope that the regimental crest on the button would help identify the victim and perhaps indicate a motive for the murder. A quick visit to the Horatio Club soon turned up the information from a crusty old Major, who had once been in the Pay Corps, but now spent most of his days at the club ensconced comfortably behind a copy of the Times. He seemed to have an encyclopaedic knowledge of every regiment in the army. The button was from the uniform jacket of a private of Wiggy’s regiment. Both battalions of the regiment had been posted to Aegypt in rotation and it now seemed likely that the murder related to Wiggy's letter. But why? Throckmorton had intended to pay his old friend a visit anyway, but he now had even more reason to do so.
