The plot of this two-reel photoplay drama is located in Mexico and is full of intrigue, treachery, jealousy, murder, etc. It is intense in an unusual degree. The direction is very ably done. The scenes are well selected and photographed clearly. The plot is in part conventional, still it contains some originality. The costumes lend to the whole, giving it a romantic flavor. It has a sad happening that detracts at the finale. It will entertain and please. - The Moving Picture World, March 21, 1914
