Well developed through interesting action
by deickemeyer2017-11-25

"Edwin August produced this picture and plays the leading part, that of a young Confederate soldier, a two-reel drama of the Civil War. The main situation, well developed through interesting action. appears when the hero, the aforementioned soldier, after shooting a Union man in a fair fight, takes refuge in his widow's house to escape capture as a spy. Some exciting battle scenes occur and the driving of the ammunition wagon through a barrier of fire, the incident which affords a title for the play, is both novel and thrilling. - The Moving Picture World, October 11, 1913..."
