Remarks and general Information in German: Die Angaben zur Besetzung sind zum Teil widersprüchlich: Edison's Kinetogram nennt die Rolle von Mabel Dwight "Viola", im Katalog von Pordenone 2016 wird diese Rolle mit "Flora Van Dyke" angegeben. Yale Benner spielt laut Kinetogram von 1914 die Rolle von Joes Freund Jim, laut Katalog Pordenone aber die Rolle von Viola/Flora's Bruder. Hier wird Robert Kegerreis als "Jake Holmes, Joe's Freund" angegeben. (lhg 2016)
