And he sank into a chair, holding between his knees his little grandson, who stood gazing with widely-opened blue eyes. "He sends love, duty, blessing. Oh, he talks of coming home, so do not fear, sir!" cried Anne, a vivid colour on her cheeks. "But what is it?" asked the father. "Tell me first the rest after."
