Dr. Sharp and his wife, Gretchen, live happily together in a little western town until the advent of the doctor's brother, Fred, who comes from the east to spend his vacation near his brother. He meets the doctor's wife and immediately falls in love, but visits her only when he knows his brother is away. The doctor learning of Fred's visits, shoots him. He repents, however, when he sees his brother's serious condition and does all he can to restore him. Affairs are happily adjusted when Fred on regaining consciousness begs forgiveness of his brother, and Gretchen assures her husband that she loves him only.

    A Western offering with G.M. Anderson, Marguerite Clayton and Frederick Church in the leading roles. Dr. Sharp introduces his brother to his sweetheart. The brother proceeds to call upon her secretly, but the young physician discovers this and there follows an exciting, though very unbrotherly. warfare. Shots are exchanged in the woods. The doctor wounds his brother, probes for the bullet with a pocket knife, carries him home and later restores him to health. An average offering, with some brisk action running through it. - The Moving Picture World, October 18, 1913
