Description

This illustration, appearing on page 436a of the [1899] George Routledge and Sons edition, depicts Alice and Ellen holding hands as Alice tells Ellen that she is terminally ill. Alice sits with one arm wrapped around Ellen as Ellen stands next to her looking down sadly. A large cabinet stands behind the two . A caption below the illustration quotes a sentence from page 436 of the text and reads, "Alice held her and looked sadly for a minute into the woebegone little face, then clasped her close and kissed her again and again."
