Very ably produced
by deickemeyer2019-05-05

"Adapted from the novel by Wilkie Collins, in two parts. This book was dramatized and produced about forty years ago on the regular stage and was an unprecedented success. The visualized version has been very ably produced, with the exception of the costuming, in some instances. Much vividness is shown in the battle scenes. Louise Vale, in the exacting part of Mercy Merrick, brings out all the salient points of the character cameo like. In fact all the members of the cast are deserving of mention. A superior release. - The Moving Picture World, November 28, 1914..."
