More effectively pictured when the narrator is kept in view
A story told to tourists by an Indian guide and giving the reason why "Ghost Lake" is haunted by the wraith of an Indian girl. Such stories are more effectively pictured when the narrator is kept in view. This is troublesome to do; but it has been done. It has a good story for a picture: but the fact that it was told to tourists weakens it just a little with a sense of unreality. In the legend a white man turns from an Indian girl with whom he had flirted and marries a white girl, a new-comer to the settlement. The Indian girl disappears and her tribe attack and wipe out the settlement. The Indian girl comes into the picture again, kisses the lifeless body of her white lover and then walks into the lake. As an offering, the picture ranks well, it having much prettiness and plenty of action. - The Moving Picture World, October 26, 1912
