    There is plenty of good atmosphere in this picture that in its story and in the way it was handled reminds us of a Biograph of some months back. It is set in very well-chosen mountain scenes and deals with a feud with its climax in a rough cabin. The wife of the leader of the attacking party has gone to the cabin to warn the victim, who happens to be her brother, and through the window she is shot by her husband's rifle. When this is made known, it brings the feud to its close. It is played by one of the Essanay's western companies with vigor and has been fairly photographed. A pretty good offering. - The Moving Picture World, June 21, 1913
