Reception



A reviewer for 'Motion Picture News' noted the outdoor shots, writing that "a wide variety of scenery is used as a background, much of it being really beautiful." They continued, "Suspense is nicely maintained at the close of each episode and there are plenty of stunts pulled which are noteworthy. In these Hoxie is not alone, being ably assisted by Miss Little." A critic for 'Exhibitors Herald' wrote, "This serial has received more favorable comments than any serial that has been run for some time. Children will like it."
