Contains heart interest throughout

This is a rural picture play, the plot of which contains heart interest throughout. An obdurate father is the cause of most of the trouble. It contains many scenes which are worked out in continuity. There is one intense scene where the husband of the girl who has been forbidden to marry almost loses his life. There is a happy ending where they are all brought together by the inevitable little "youngster." It held the interest of the audience. Irene Boyle is featured as the daughter. - The Moving Picture World, August 29, 1914
