This picture was watched by the audience with marked attention. It shows how a crime came to be committed, how the suspicion of guilt is fastened on the most commendable man in the story and how the "great detective" (played by Charles Clary) unravels the difficulty and brings the guilty one to justice. One marked feature of it is the disguise of the detective, which the average person will not see through until the mask is removed. It is not a perfectly convincing picture, but it holds the attention strongly and can be safely relied on to furnish acceptable entertainment. Arthur P. Hankins is the author and Oscar Eagle produced it. Jack Nelson plays the hero; Winnifred Greenwood, the girl ; Norman Fowler, the rival, and LaFayette McKee, the cook. Mrs. Louise Kelley plays the mother of the hero and Rosa Evans, the mother of the rival. George Cox is the lawyer arguing in the trial scene. There is good team work and the picture is pretty successfully "put over." - The Moving Picture World, November 1, 1913
