By the addition of one new character, the whole aspect of an often-used situation has been not only changed, but made intensely interesting. If it had been well acted by all those in important roles, as well by the grafting governess and by the fortune hunting nobleman as by the homely lawyer and the heiress of whose fortune he has charge. It would have been a big offering; for the situation has much more substance and is more easily believable than any of this kind that we remember. Just as it is it will be closely followed for its story and counted a fine picture by the majority who are not critical. Arthur Johnson plays the lawyer, a queer character, a kind of "man from home." Lottie Briscoe is as usual in roles of this kind. Howard Mitchell does not seem at his best as the count. Mrs. Daly plays the governess, and Charles Brandt, the lawyer's clerk. The scenes are clearly thought out and freshly interesting and the action is carried along smoothly and quite clearly. - The Moving Picture World, January 18, 1913
