This is a pretty story of an old man who loved his violin and grandchild almost equally well, but when the fire occurs his heart turns to the child. The fore part of the story is conventional, showing how the daughter married against the old man's wishes, but in the later scenes this gets quite a strong hold on the hearts of observers. The fire scene was well staged and the appearance of the child with the violin after its supposed death was very effective. In spite of its formal opening this rises to a fine climax and has a touch of real heart interest in it. - The Moving Picture World, September 26, 1914
