One almost wants to hurrah

Something in the victory of a tenderfoot or a greenhorn, in anything, makes one thrill with a sort of exultation that is unexplainable, but none the less real. And when the young, and apparently innocent, minister falls into the horse thieves' camp and succeeds in taking the entire gang into camp one must needs join in the thrill of pleasure over his success. Like all Biograph pictures, the story is remarkably well told and there isn't a dull moment from the beginning to the end. The acting of the hero, the innocent minister, is as well adapted to the peculiar part as it possibly can be, and at the climax, when he receives his $500 and the hand of the girl, one almost wants to hurrah with the rest of the cowboys. - The Moving Picture World, May 7, 1910
