  • A comedy that in outline is quite conventional. A widower and a widow, with a son and a daughter, respectively, live in houses with adjoining grounds. The young people are sweethearts, but the widow decides to build a hencoop where it will be unpleasantly close to the widower's lawn. This causes a quarrel between the older people and looks as though it was going to end the love match. The only fresh part of the picture is that showing how the young people broke through the difficulty. There seems to be not much "go" in the picture and through parts it drags. The audience looked at it in silence. - The Moving Picture World, October 21, 1911
