This black and white illustration, appearing on page 120a of the [1896] Walter Scott, Limited reprint, depicts Ellen and Alice on the Cat's Back. A caption below the illustration quotes a sentence from page 123 and reads, "Don't cry any more." In the illustration, Alice sits on a rock wearing a straw-brimmed hat and walking suit. She gazes down at Ellen and wraps her arm around her as Ellen kneels on the grass and leans into Alice to be consoled.

Several thin trees stand behind Alice and Ellen and a row of trees extends along the ridge of the mountain.
