Notes: Depicts Julian Peveril at Peveril Castle attacking with his sword the soldiers guarding his father, whose hands are tied behind his back, and as Lady Peveril looks on anxiously; the figure at a writing-table on the other side of the room is presumably meant to represent Major Bridgenorth [Ch. 23].
