Short summary
This is considered to be the first true "cliffhanger" serial. Many early serials were more like what would today be called a series--each episode's story was self-contained. However, each episode of this serial had a suspenseful ending (i.e., a "cliffhanger"), and viewers had to return to the theater to watch the next chapter and see how the characters escaped the danger in which they were left.
CHAPTER TITLES: 1. The Unwelcome Throne (1913); 2. The Two Ordeals (1914); 3. The Temple of the Lion (1914); 4. The Royal Slave (1914); 5. A Colonel in Chains (1914); 6. Three Bags of Silver (1914); 7. The Garden of Brides (1914); 8. The Cruel Crown (1914); 9. The Spellbound Multitude (1914); 10. The Warrior Maid (1914); 11. The Forged Parchment (1914); 12. The King's Will (1914); 13. The Court of Death (1914).
