“Illustration on Page 222a of the [1910] S.W. Partridge & Co, Ltd. Reprint Depicting Ellen Arriving at the Marshmans’,” Wide, Wide World Digital Edition, accessed December 22, 2024, https://widewideworlddigitaledition.siue.edu/items/show/1749.

This illustration, appearing on page 222a of the [1910] S.W. Partridge & Co., Ltd. edition, depicts Alice, Ellen, and John arriving at the Marshman's. Alice, wrapped in a heavy shawl, is being greeted by Miss Sophia in a formal room while Ellen and John stand behind her, watching the encounter. Through the open door that Alice, Ellen, and John entered through, the back of a sleigh is visible as it sits surrounded by snow. The warmth of the encounter is contrasted with the winter weather outside the home. Below the illustration a caption quotes a sentence from page 223 and reads, "She kissed Alice a great many times, seeming very glad to see her."
