It doesn't take many scenes to reveal the situation in this Western love story. The ranchman's punchers are systematically robbing him. He has a pretty daughter. The leading man applies to him for a job and is refused. The rancher's foreman gives him a job; it is to misbrand the rancher's cattle. The girl finds him at the work and arrests him. He tells her that his sick mother is starving and that he could get no work and she verifies this and is sympathetic. Under her helping care, the mother recovers. Later, the man finds gold. The rancher has become poor and the man repays the girl for her kindness. The picture is well designed. Its weakness lies, perhaps, in a certain sentimentality, especially in its starving mother episode, but some like this sort of thing. If is well acted, of course. - The Moving Picture World, December 9, 1911
