We were entertained by this picture, more because what it showed was fresh than because it was probable. In truth, its freshness was obtained at the expense of its probability. What might have been a serious scenario has been done in the right spirit and makes a hidden comedy that is truly amusing. It's a safe picture to show even on a rainy day. The girl (Myrtle Stedman) gives the new minister, out West, a side of beef. The half breed (poor devil) kills a steer and puts the new skin under a box at the Dominie's door and he is accused of being a cattle thief and strung up. But the girl sees the deed and shoots from the distance, cutting the rope. Explanations follow. - The Moving Picture World, October 18, 1913
