This black and white frontispiece appearing in the 1893 T. Nelson & Sons Reprint, depicts John and Ellen at the Marshman's. John sits in front of a panoramic window on an upholstered bench, and holds the standing Ellen's hand with an expression of concern. Ellen looks away towards the floor, her expression melancholic. Beneath the frontispiece is a caption that reads:
"Ellen and John", "Running away from your brother, Ellie?" said he kindly, "what is the matter?" "Ellen was silent". The caption references page 369 of the text.
