Comedy.

Reviews: [The Moving Picture World, 8 January 1910, page 17] A story of how an ingenious thief succeeded in securing sums of money from unsuspecting people. Fortunately he is detected and hurried away to prison. The first part of the picture might have the effect of inciting some weakminded person to undertake the same thing; but the last part is sufficiently empahtic in showing what happens to all such individuals.

Survival status: (unknown)
