    The development of the story is pleasing

    A two-reel production in which Harry von Meter, Vivian Rich, Jack Richardson and Charlotte Burton pluy the principal roles. The development of the story is pleasing, the action smooth, the sets deep and artistic, and the direction of the picture is in every instance commendable. Perhaps its one drawback is to be found in the quality of its sub-titles and inserts. - The Moving Picture World, January 30, 1915
