A farce comedy featuring Mr. Charles Clary, who plays in it a cleverly pictured double impersonation. It has a very novel situation. The hero doesn't know that he is carrying the valise of a burglar; but the burglar does and is following. The hero applies to an unscrupulous man, his double, for a loan. This man, to get an inheritance coming to the hero, locks him in a safe in his office. The tools in the valise help him to get out. At this point he is arrested as a safe cracker. His wife, arriving with his right valise and an explanation that tallies with his story, saves him from a serious predicament. It is an impossible story as pictured, yet gets over on its novelty and its clever acting and scene-making. La Fayette McKee plays the burglar; Lillian Leighton is the housekeeper; Capitola Holmes, her daughter; Mac Barnes is the police sergeant, and the policemen are Harry McCabe, Colin Reid, Frank De Camp and Charles De Delzecchie. - The Moving Picture World, August 10, 1912
