trade paper says:-
"Mrs. Vernon Castle appears with grace and charm.
The Mark of Cain" is a mys- tery story of unusual excellence. Murder is the crime about which the conflicting evidence centres and the events leading up to and following the deed are presented with a deftness and skill that keep the observers guessing every minute of the time.
"The story is simple in devel- lopment, has practically no excess characters and the action from first to last is almost a model for this type of story. It has the fascination of a good piece of de- tective fiction."
OR
The Exhibitor's Trade Re-
view says
"A thrilling and mysterious detective story with plenty ofj action makes 'The Mark of Cain" exciting entertainment. It is a detective story with the usual amount of blood and thunder el- iminated, but as the plot unfolds there is cffered a story replete throughout with unusual situa-) ticos, surrounded at all times with a veil of mystery and pre- sented with such consistency as to ably hold the interests of the audience from the first to the last.
The Mark of Cain will appeal to all lovers of mystery, Its story is brimming over with thrills, action and excitement and at the same time is so well! presented as to afford a story! that can easily hold the atten- tion of the audience without be- coming too much of a cogun- drum."
