We have here a touching and dramatic picture, showing how one man protected the honor of his brother, whom he finds is a bandit. The scenes where the brothers are insisting that each shall assume the blame for the hold-up are stirring, and the emotions are deeply touched when the mother accepts the statement of the returning son that he is the wandering brother, and sinks back peacefully in the enjoyment of his supposed presence. It is a home picture, based upon homely scenes and contains homely characters. It goes direct to the heart and holds the attention of the audience throughout. The contrast between the desperate hold-up of the stagecoach and the peaceful look on the face of the mother adds much to the interest of the film. - The Moving Picture World, June 3, 1911
