Alison's curly-headed little fellow came scampering up, to begin batting hard behind the light wheeled chair in which the old man sat; and as Neil and his wife saw the old man's glee, there was a faint touch of sorrow in the husband's heart, as he thought that it might have been his son who was st.u.r.dily pus.h.i.+ng along the old man's chair.
He turned and looked half shrinkingly at his wife, as he saw that her deep eyes were fixed on his, and the next moment he knew that she could read the very secrets of his heart.
For she laid her hand on his, and said softly:
"Our children are waiting yonder, Neil, under the black clouds of the great city--our children, love--the poor, the suffering, and the weak, waiting, waiting for the healing touch of my dear husband's hand."
"And for their pillows to be smoothed by their tender nurse--true woman--dearest wife."
The End.
