There is used in this picture story a theme which, if ever, has been seldom used. It hinges on the intense love of a wife and mother for her husband and only son. These two vie with each other to please her and the family's happiness is complete, until the husband is killed by accident and the love for the son saves the mother from insanity. Later the mother is frantically jealous of her son's fiancée. She attempts to dissemble for their sake, however, the son is drowned before the wedding and the mother is almost happy in "her victory eternal." It will please the sentimental. - The Moving Picture World, October 24, 1914
