The object of this picture is to tell an entertaining story; yet it is likely to make one's blood boil by its pictures of convict life in the prison camps in the south. It is not a horrible picture; many of its scenes are extremely beautiful, especially those showing the Everglades with the quiet waters and tangled growth of its forests, their trees covered with "graybeard" moss. The man was innocent, was convicted and suffered with other prisoners. A girl of the country pitied him and, when he escaped with others and bloodhounds were set upon their trails, she hid him. He was recaptured, however, and later pardoned; then he returned to her. The story is good, interesting and full of acceptable freshness. The escape and chase are both very well managed. The photographs are very fair. It is a very desirable filler. - The Moving Picture World, March 30, 1912
