Will not be wholly popular
Full sympathy cannot be given the normal spectator to anything morbid. In this picture, the old grandmother who makes memories of the dead tyrannize over the living will not be wholly popular. The story deals with her cure through her love for her grandson, but until this begins the come out, it has an unpleasant taste and the whole picture suffers from her keeping the dead daughter's place always set at the table and her not allowing any other to occupy it. It is well acted, but the direction might have made entrances and exits in a few scenes less awkward. The photography is clear and it is, as a whole, fair. - The Moving Picture World, February 7, 1914
