A strength not always noticeable in subjects of this type

Another rendering of the eternal triangle developing interesting situations, and closing with a dramatic scene when the young man leaves his sweetheart and clings to his semi-savage wife. The old problems which have beset human hearts since the beginning of time are retold and in the telling they develop a strength not always noticeable in subjects of this type. The question will rise in one's mind regarding the advisability of the young man leaving his sweetheart and taking a wife in the wilderness, but having done it he closed the incident in the right way by sticking to her. The real problems of life are quite like the problems in this film therefore the picture should prove interesting to every audience who sees it. - The Moving Picture World, March 11, 1911
