It will please
by deickemeyer2018-05-13

"This picture afforded G.M. Anderson (Broncho Billy) an opportunity to appear in a somewhat new role, that of an outlaw. In his younger days he was a bad "boy" and ran away, A runaway usually rides on the toboggan. Such was the fate of Broncho Billy. He comes to a bad end, but to save a brother's honor he sacrifices himself. Carl Stockdale, Evelyn Selbie, Emery Johnson, True Bordman, and Lee Willard. ably supported Mr. Anderson. The environments were well selected. Photography first class. It will please. - The Moving Picture World, February 28, 1914..."
