    This picture made a deep impression upon the audience

    An elaborately staged subject, containing thrilling moments and situations that make the audience almost gasp so realistically are they done. It is the first time that the old time torture chamber and its horrors have been utilized in compelling a girl to sacrifice herself for the benefit of her lover, but the dramatic way in which she succeeds in discouraging the duke's attentions wins for her the lasting regard of the audience. And then her lover, released from his tortures, does what the duke did not expect him to do, leads the girl away despite the disfigurement of her once beautiful face. This picture made a deep impression upon the audience. It is so clear and the story is made so plain that it cannot be misunderstood. The Imp company has achieved a success which will continue as long as this picture is shown. Even though the torture chamber is gruesome and the girl's sacrifice is horrible, the effect upon the audience is to increase their interest and when the young man leads the girl away they are quite ready to applaud. - The Moving Picture World, February 18, 1911
