Not quite as strong as the average Broncho production
by deickemeyer2017-09-24

"A characteristic war drama in two reels. The girl refuses to wed Groves, who was her mother's choice. She falls in love with John, who becomes a rebel. The mother will not forgive the girl and sends her from the house. War scenes intervene and both John and Groves are shown amid the raging battle. John is shot and dies with his newly born baby in his arms. It is years after the war that the mother relents and takes the girl back to her. Not quite as strong as the average Broncho production. - The Moving Picture World, July 19, 1913..."
