Not a strong picture

A picture in which the church committee brings suffering to a poor woman by its unsympathetic intrusion into her affairs. The woman dies later from overwork and starvation. Her little girl seeks aid and is turned aside by the wealthy people. Finally she goes to the cabin of the reprobate, who fishes on Sunday and is generally reprehensible. He takes care of the child, and she eventually leads him to attend church. Not a strong picture, but one that holds the interest, in spite of its mixed motives. Photographically good. - The Moving Picture World, March 22, 1913
