PlotAs described in a film magazine,[4] Henri Labordie (Tavernier) is the father of twins. Jeanne (Taliaferro) is sweet and winsome while her brother Jaques (Taliaferro), pampered by her father, is ill-tempered. When Jaques dies through his own caddishness, Jeanne, to spare her father from the shock, clips off her hair and dons boys clothing so that her father will think that it was her and not Jaques who drowned in a stream. When Labordie dies, Jeanne's deception ends when she goes to Montreal to fulfill an ancient pact, and there she finds happiness. Cast
ReceptionLike many American films of the time, The Jury of Fate was subject to cuts by city and state film censorship boards. The Chicago Board of Censors cut the scene showing a woman in travail prior to the birth of a baby, a closeup of a half-breed choking a man over a railing, and shortened a scene with a man on the floor showing blood.[5] References1. ^The Library of Congress American Silent Feature Film Survival Catalog: The Jury of Fate 2. ^{{cite web |url=https://movies.nytimes.com/movie/97449/Jury-of-Fate/overview |title=New York Times: The Jury of Fate |accessdate=May 4, 2008|work=NY Times}} 3. ^The AFI Catalog of Feature Films: The Jury of Fate 4. ^{{cite journal |last= |first= |authorlink= |title=Reviews: The Jury of Fate |journal=Exhibitors Herald |volume=5 |issue=9 |publisher=Exhibitors Herald Company |date=August 25, 1917 |location=New York |page=26 |url=https://archive.org/details/exhibitorsherald05exhi}} 5. ^{{cite journal |title=Official Cut-Outs by the Chicago Board of Censors |journal=Exhibitors Herald |volume=5 |issue=10 |page=33 |date=September 1, 1917 |url=https://archive.org/stream/exhibitorsherald05exhi#page/n484/mode/1up |accessdate=July 14, 2015}} External links
