Description:: Illustrated pages from the story, "Ogwalla Springs," written by Adelbert Bartlett, possibly drawn by Mrs. Williams (no full name or initials on illustration). A diagonal layout carries across both pages, with illustrations rendered on the lower right corners of both pages, while the upper left areas are left open for printed text. Illustrations on left-hand page include two horse and riders (at least one is female), cacti, and a sun with human face (seen winking at the viewer). A decorative border separates this scene from the scene at left. Here, a glamorous woman sits in bed with a tray above her lap. A tea pot, cup and saucer, plate and napkin are depicted. Shelves displaying several pairs of shoes are drawn at left. Text above her reads: "Breakfast in Bed Club." The name "Dolle," a drawing of an arrow shooting through two hearts, and the number "6" (likely page number) are placed at the bottom of the page.

A dwelling sits at right, near farm animals (possibly mules) and a buggy. Short-hand birds fly above, while the sun shines over the hills rendered in the background. Text at top reads: "(double page)...Ogwallah."
