A three-reel subject from the book by Fred S. Isham. It runs along like a Drury Lane melodrama. The action is brisk and interesting. George Selgmann appears as "The Frisco Pet," an ex-prize fighter, who is convicted of a murder accidentally committed by Lord Ronsdale, the villain of the piece. Some scenes are taken on board the prison ship Success, but the long sub-title describing this fact pulls the observer's mind temporarily away from the story. The story does not lag at any point and moves along to a successful conclusion, wherein the ex-convict gets justice and marries the girl whose life he saved in the storm at sea. The production is not without faults, but has sustained interest throughout and is very good of its kind. - The Moving Picture World, June 21, 1913
