"Where is your home, Mr. Heath?"
An amused smile played about his lips at her question
"My friends—that is those who love me—-call me 'Will,' there," he said, significantly; "and surely, darling you need not treat me with so much formality. Do not call me Mr. Heath any more, Virgie."
"Please tell me where our home is to be—Will," she said, looking up at him with a shy smile, and blushing as the newly spoken name left her lips.
He bent and touched them fondly with his own.
"In England, love," he returned.
"England!"
"Yes. Shall you regret leaving your own country?"
"No; I think I shall be glad," Virgie answered, with a little sigh of content and relief.
Sir William looked gratified.
