Rockcliffe Fellowes, Jack Mulhall and
Virginia Pearson, was heartily re-
ceived by delighted audience at the
Capitol Theatre, yesterday. This pic
turization by. Rupert Juliap,. Of the
sensational stage success III which
Mr.. Warner was the star, is one Of
the strongest film versions Of a sue
cessful play seen here in many
months.
The story deals with a gentleman
crooks love for Z daughter who was
unaware Of his existence. When a
crime is unwittingly committed by
her, to save her, he shoulders respon-
J sibility for murder and is sentenced
to death. He refuses to tell the truth
even though death on the gallows
awaits him, because he dared not in
criminate his child. Then follows a
sensation and thrilling climax which
holds the spectator as by spell.
