This black and white illustration, found on page 564a of the [1907] Grosset & Dunlap reprint, depicts Ellen Reuniting with John in Scotland.

This illustration, appearing on page 406a of the [1910] S.W. Partridge & Co., Ltd. edition, depicts Ellen being comforted by her Uncle Lindsay as her aunt, Lady Keith, and her grandmother watch from across the table. A caption below the illustration quotes a sentence from page 407 of the text and reads, "'Come, come, what is the matter Ellen?'" The room where Ellen and her Uncle Lindsay are pictured is very proper with a table strewn with silver tableware, a fireplace, and a large painting hanging on the wall. While Ellen's Uncle Lindsay seems eager to pull Ellen close to him to comfort her, Ellen, although leaning in, also appears to be resisting as she looks almost as though she could be pulling away from him. This ambiguity highlights the developing relationship between the two as Ellen loves her Uncle Lindsay but finds it difficult to conform to the demands he places on her.

This illustration, appearing on page 304 of the 1888 J.B. Lippincott & Co. edition, depicts Mr. Lindsay observing Ellen. A shadowed Mr. Lindsay stands in the doorway to a darkened room, where Ellen is sitting on the floor of the room, resting against the seat of a chair and looking out a window. She wears a pale dress, her fingers are laced on the seat cushion, and her glowing, yet melancholic face is turned towards the incoming light. Beneath the illustration, in a cursive script, is the name of the artist, Frederick Dielman, and the line "Mr. Lindsey stood still at the door," from page 304 of the text. At the very bottom of the page, in the same script, is the title of the book along with the volume and page number. This illustration first appeared on page 544b of the 1892 J. B. Lippincott Co. "New Edition" Reprint (see 9CIA).
