There are two distinct parts to this picture: when the poor mother's boys were children and twenty years later. The first part isn't so interesting as the second, which is played by good and experienced players and is much more convincing. The mother is parted from both her boys, because of poverty. Each of them has a Bible inscribed by the same minister and, in later years, in a court room scene, these are the means of bringing the mother and her boys together again. There is sentiment in the picture and sentimentality also; it isn't a great picture, or a feature, but it will serve as a filler. - The Moving Picture World, February 24 1912
