Miss Snow and Mr. Cruze play the leads in this picture well supported by Miss La Badie and others of the Thanhouser Company that was in Florida this winter. The picture tells a good, substantial story in lowly scenes and backgrounds. These are well set on scenes to be typical and aid the story with suggestive atmosphere; but the producer hasn't depended upon any beauty except what the human situation afforded; he didn't need to. The situation is this: the wife of a young man is on a steamboat that is wrecked. She is saved; but her husband doesn't know it. Her husband, in his sorrow has left the village and she can't find him. She sees in a newspaper that the supposed widower is to be married again and comes in time to stop the wedding after a dramatic episode. It is a picture to thrill and make one hold his breath; yet also to satisfy the artistic feelings, because it is so well acted and so skillfully drawn. The camera work is very good. It is a very desirable picture. - The Moving Picture World, June 15, 1912
