The Chicago Board of Censors ordered cut scenes from Reel 1 of a shooting, from Reel 2 the signaling from man on roof to man on street, shooting from the roof, and a vision of a gun fight in a saloon, and from Reel 5 fourteen gun fight and shooting scenes and two scenes of struggle between man and girl.[2]
