This is a dramatic story of fisher folk. The background is the Jersey coast, and a fishing village. One scene shows a rowboat riding the beachcombers as it makes its way out, and shows this exciting adventure better than does any of the other beach pictures that we have had recently. All the sea pictures in this film are commendable. The situation is convincing enough to be interesting. If it falls short of being a true picture of life in places, we nearly always see the reason. We are satisfied, for instance, to have the warden weigh the evidence after the villain's death, and free the hero who was accused of poisoning his aunt for her money. The lovers sit on the beach with the ocean waves and moonlight for a closing scene. The acting is good. - The Moving Picture World, July 8, 1911
