The story of the means taken by a pair of thieves to rob a rich ranchman, which was foiled by his secretary. The picture cannot claim any dramatic interest. It tells a common enough story, laying the scene in different surroundings, but after all, substantially the same. The photography in some places is weak, especially where an attempt has been made to produce brown tones. The night scenes are better, but are not worth bragging about. The farm scenes are not bad, the rounding up of the cattle and the scenes as the horsemen ride away are all reasonably good. There is a neat bit of acting where the secretary pieces the torn bits of the letter together, but to merely make marks across the paper does not create the appearance of torn places. - The Moving Picture World, January 7, 1911
