The part of the father was overdone
by deickemeyer2017-10-08

"An interesting film story with Robert Leonard and Marguerita Fisher in the leading roles. The girl, adopted from a family low in the social scale, proceeds to fall in love with the handsome butler. He turns out to be a hero and quite worthy of her. The part of the father was overdone, particularly in the matter of makeup, and the closing scene, while perhaps characteristic, was a drawback to the picture. As a whole the offering is successful. - The Moving Picture World, August 2, 1913..."
