Plot
This plot summary was published in The Moving Picture World for July 24, 1915[2]
A capital farce motive furnishes "the cue for action" in this one-reel comedy. The construction is apt, the humorous climax being brought about skillfully. Arthur Housman. Dallis Welford, and the other members of the long cast make the performance score heavily.
