'The camera, was shown to have been put to another use— to detect crime— in the star film, 'The Octoroon,' a most thrilling story adapted from Dion Boucicault's drama, screened by West's Pictures at Malcolm's Albury Olympia last evening. This was the sequel to the wrongful actions of a murderer, who had tried to upset an estate thereby causing the heroine to be sold as a slave and separated from her lover.'
