A touching picture representing the love which existed between an old man and his granddaughter, the death of his daughter, the coming of another wife and her heartlessness to the old man. which resulted in his death, and the loyalty of the granddaughter. The little one's loyalty in securing his pipe and tobacco after the step-mother had thrown it out the window is a tender bit of acting. Then comes the cruel banishment to the attic, and the little one's using her hoard of pennies to buy more tobacco, only to find that her grandpa was dead. The last scene, where she is placing flowers on his grave will arouse the emotions very strongly so pathetic and natural is it. The film is all good, with sufficient pathos to make an unusual heart interest. - The Moving Picture World, January 7, 1911
