This black and white illustration, appearing on page 400a of the 1892 J. B. Lippincott Company "New Edition" reprint, depicts the horse whipping. Below the illustration a caption quotes a sentence from page 401 of the text and reads, "Ellen hardly saw how, it was so quick." In the illustration, Mr. Saunders lays in the grass next to the road after having been thrown by John, who stands tall, holding the reigns of his horse on the path. Ellen sits on her horse near John, looking back at the scene with uncertainty. Behind Ellen, an open field extends into the distance, framed by trees that stand near the path. Mountains can be seen in the background of the illustration.

Subjects: The Horse Whipping, Ellen, The Brownie, Mr. Saunders, John
