The producer's intention seems to be put across by this picture perhaps a hundred percent. It is terribly effective as a picture of the fierce brute that hides in man. The man is a drunkard. He comes home in an ugly temper to act like a hideous madman and to make his home a ruin of broken glass and furniture. One of his little children runs for help, while the oldest girl fights back. The men from the saloon come and beat the brute into insensibility. The youngest child has meanwhile fallen over a cliff and is lying dead. She is missed. While the family and the neighbors are out seeking her, the man comes to consciousness, but has delirium tremens and when the dead child is brought in he also is found dead. Here surely is an argument against drink. It is simply fiendish. As we overheard it said, "It is like the stories of real life one hears." - The Moving Picture World, February 3, 1912
