    Its numerous shortcomings might easily have been avoided

    Here is a highly romantic railroad story, containing many ridiculous features and yet on the whole making good. Miriam Cooper does some daring feats in the part of Jane, riding on top of moving boxcars with a revolver in her hand; later both she and Bad Bill jump from the moving freight train into a stream. The hero is represented as guarding valuable freight, the nature of which is not indicated; his white trousers and boiled shirt did not comport with the nature of his job very well. A story by no means uninteresting, though it does seem as though its numerous shortcomings might easily have been avoided. - The Moving Picture World, October 18, 1913
