The Land of Dead Things

A splendid two-reel number, depicting an episode on the early Western plains. Indian pictures of this type will never tire the public; the picture so finely acted and legitimate in every respect. There are no confusing lapses of years, but instead we see developed a stirring, straightforward story, showing the misfortunes of a young settler and his wife and child. The desert scenes were full of interest, and while the plot was not entirely new, it gets hold of the observer and there is no abatement of the tension. A good release. - The Moving Picture World, September 20, 1913
