Here is a close-up image scan of the weird Bedside Carving
on the 9 of Swords from the Pamela Colman Smith Tarot...
Click on to view: Mysterious Swordfight Carving on Bed.
Notice too, the artist has placed her signature initials there,
not in the usual right hand corner, but near to this scene...
Even under a magnifying glass, it is hard to make out details.
Could this be a scene from the Irish Folk Legends Pam loved?

Edited to add:
I have (personally) come to the conclusion
that the scene on the bedside illustrates
the dream that has woken the person...
That is why (I think) it is shown there...
to provide a clue to the Reader about it.
So (to me) the person wakes up, troubled,
after having a distrubing dream and it was
pictured on the card to illustrate just what.
