San Clemente is an island out in the Pacific from the California coast. The convert was a little Indian maid, the only one on the island to be converted. Two friars made a trip to the island. One was shot with an Indian's arrow as soon as they landed, the other escaped, thinking the brother dead. An Indian girl found the wounded priest and for long years kept him hidden from her friends. She fell in love with him and couldn't understand why he wouldn't take her as his wife, but he kept his vow and later, when he is saved, we see the convert kneeling with the cross in her hands, probably still wondering why she had been deserted. The picture is dignified and well acted and some of the scenery is interesting, but it moves at a leisurely pace. - The Moving Picture World, December 9, 1911
