Notes

This film is unrelated to a seven reel William A. Brady film released in late 1913 and to a two reel Mutual film reviewed in Moving Picture World on February 7, 1914, both of which had the same title as this film. The plot synopsis provided in copyright records seems to suggest that the picture is a short, but the actual length is undetermined and it May in fact be of feature length. Although Fielding is listed as "Author" in the copyright records and appears in the film, he was a director and scenarist and May have directed and/or written this film as well as appeared in it.
