Not without appeal

The plot material in this drama, written by George Bronson Howard, seems full enough to warrant a more lengthy treatment. As it stands, the picture is not without appeal in showing how the heart of a severe man is softened toward his children. Frank Currier, well cast as the father, is ably supported by Edith Storey, S. Rankin Drew and others. - The Moving Picture World, March 6, 1915
