A story of early California just about the time the Gringos came. The plot deals with a love episode in which a frontiersman, Clay, rescues a senorita, Isabel Marello, from a forced marriage to a Mexican, her father's choice. The plot is not fresh, but the Selig players have not done much of this sort of thing lately, and it is very interesting. Hobart Bosworth, as Clay, looks very much like the Christ, as he played that part in "The Vision Beautiful," recently; but his kindliness of expression fits very well into the story. Phyllis Gordon plays the girl, and A.E. Garcia the Mexican. Wm. H. Stratton, as Chico, the Indian runner, deserves special notice for excellent work, even in a picture well played as a whole. F. Richardson and Anna Dodge play the heroine's parents. Henry Ennis and Rob Chandler are the trappers with Clay. Edward Philbrook is Kearney and Camille Astor is the Indian maid. There are two or three very pretty girls in the cast. The picture was written by Everett McNeil and produced by Fred Huntly. - The Moving Picture World, August 24, 1912
