Contains quite a few thrills

by deickemeyer • 2018-12-30

A young lawyer breaks up a daring conspiracy to steal a railroad and thereby wins himself a wife. A famous crook poses as a millionaire, knocks down an old lawyer and leaves him senseless. The young man is accused of murder, but proves himself innocent and all ends happily. This is a favorable offering. - The Moving Picture World, August 22, 1914..."
