An Irish romance which will touch the hearts of most audiences at once. The O'Neill is a patriot who flees the country because of charges against him. He returns secretly and very romantically meets a young woman who betrays him and assists in his capture, but relents and elopes with him afterward. A situation like this is sufficient to arouse the emotions and hold them. The meeting, when the young man acts as a highwayman to obtain the wherewithal to assist his unfortunate friend who helped him, their subsequent meeting at a masked ball, and the girl's betrayal all afford ample opportunity for thrilling action. The players do very well indeed. Then comes the girl's remorse as love awakens. They escape together and are married when they reach the coast and fly to France where they live happily afterward. A story of this character is more than ordinarily interesting and will please an audience better than almost anything a manager can offer. - The Moving Picture World, January 27, 1912
