    The audience liked this simple. short love story. It has no frills and no padding; in other words, it minds what it is about and gets its story over. "The Golden Cloud" is the name of a mine, but the scenes are exclusively in a city and the story is told mostly in an office and in the home of the rich heroine who helps the hero out of his financial difficulties. - The Moving Picture World, November 1, 1913
