A late 19th-century pen-and-ink illustration on a tan background, featuring a pioneer wagon train under sparse trees. In the foreground, two bearded men in wide-brimmed hats walk away from a covered wagon, carrying a litter holding a small body draped in a cloth. A woman inside the wagon looks down, weeping. In the lower right, a small campfire tripod holds a cooking pot. The title, 'Hagar' is superimposed over the top half of the scene in large, stylized, rust-red block letters with elongated, angular strokes. Below the illustration, stylized black text reads: 'By James Arthur MacKnight'. The bottom footer contains formal publisher text: 'Belford, Clarke & Co., Publishers, Chicago, New York and San Francisco. LONDON: H. J. DRANE, Lovell's Court, Paternoster Row. The Household Library. N.Y., No. 21, Vol. 4. Nov. 15, 1888.'
