They put just the right spirit and dash into it

Here is offered a solution of the wedding problem which will perhaps help others in a similar dilemma. The widow won't marry him until he disposes of his four single daughters, and proposes kicking the lovers off the place to make them elope. The scheme works to perfection and he gets the widow, while the girls get the fellows they want. This is all worked out humorously and brings many a laugh before it finishes. This character of play is admirably produced by the Essanay actors. They put just the right spirit and dash into it to make it interesting and attractive. One pretty scene is the reproduction of a barn dance and the Virginia reel to the music of an old fiddler. - The Moving Picture World, April 16, 1910
