It seems a little thin
deickemeyer17 April 2016
The accepted suitor and the rejected suitor compete for the contract to make the dam and the happy suitor wins again. The time limit for its construction is a year with a $25,000 forfeit. The other man disguised gets a job as foreman and delays the work in many villainous ways. It looks badly for the contractor, for at a critical moment a false telegram has got him out of the way. His wife, however, takes a hand and the dam is finished on time. It is a well-constructed and well- acted melodrama, but it seems a little thin; the situation is not drawn sharp enough to be poignant. - The Moving Picture World, October 7, 1911
