There were people in the audience who seemed to be laughing at some of the scenes in this picture , its backgrounds are very amateurish. It is a story of the Northwoods country, which is wintry all the time but never truly wild-looking. The story is good and of true two-part caliber, but there is much in the first reel, especially while the situation is getting stated, that is unpleasant and not convincing, for instance, the way those scenes that immediately precede the elopement are handled lack vigor. The second reel is both interesting and big and makes the offering worthwhile. It has some good details, many graceful scenes and has clear photography. Emmett Campbell Hall is author and John Ince produced it. - The Moving Picture World, May 30, 1914
