King Baggot in this two-reel number portrays all of the ten characters that appear. Double exposure and in one instance triple exposure photography are employed in a most interesting way, so that two and three characters appear on the screen at the same time in several scenes. George Edwards Hall has constructed an entertaining plot of the melodramatic type to exploit these various impersonations. An elderly merchant is murdered and the crime traced by a detective. At no time in the course of the story does the interest flag. In the entire story Mr. Baggot impersonates the mother, the son, the uncle, the merchant, a Chinese servant, the villain, a woman of the half world, the jailer, the policeman and the detective. An unusual offering. - The Moving Picture World, October 10, 1914
