Unconvincing and full of improbabilities
by deickemeyer2017-09-15

"A melodramatic picture that is very unconvincing and full of improbabilities. The hero (Boyd Clark) saves the man who didn't want to be his father-in-law from being robbed by tramps and wins the heroine (Marian Cooper.) About half of the photography is very good. There is nothing in it that is not old except one incident, by way of sensation, that is plainly not probable and surely net exciting it is the way the hero is let down on the deck of a passing steamboat from a derrick on a dock. - The Moving Picture World, June 14, 1913..."
