Original caption: "Frank Keenan, Star of Pathé Plays, snapped with Mrs. Keenan, their two daughters, son-in-law, and grand children just before his departure from New York for Los Angeles where his future feature films will be made. Mr. Keenan's first picture under the Pathé Banner 'Loaded Dice' is greeted as the most interesting thing he has yet done. He follows with a screen version of Elizabeth Lee's 'Simeon Tetlowe's Shadow', and of Sir Henry Irving's greatest hit, both under the direction of Ernest C. Warde, nephew of Frederick Warde, and producer of 'The Vicar of Wakefield."
