In this drama, filmed on the Pacific Coast and containing many fine backgrounds of old ocean, there is a real thrill, a punch. A husband, believing his wife to be in love with his brother, leaves on the beach his overcoat and a note that he has committed suicide and leaves the section. The wife loses her reason. Twice she sees her husband sitting in his favorite chair. When she embraces him her arms close on a shadow. The husband, reading of her affliction, returns home and consults her physician. The latter prepares a shock for the wife. He places the husband in the same chair. When the wife sees him she remembers the two failures. Then she touches his hand. She puts her arms about his neck. She realizes that this time it is no phantom, but her lost husband, and collapses. Linda Griffith plays the wife, who is thus restored to sanity, and she gives a fine portrayal. The picture is written by Bennet Musson and is well made. - The Moving Picture World, April 19, 1913
