Only the young widow Ellen Barton, who lives on a farm with her son Johnny and the Indian Luna, still opposes Ferguson's offers. After a wolf attack in the wilderness - Dollar's previous attempts to sell ties in town were unsuccessful - Dollar and Daniel find employment and affection at Ellen's farm. Again and again they clash with Ferguson and his people, whereby the dog Zanna Bianca is killed, the child is tortured and Ferguson wants to force his marriage to Ellen.

Then Daniel Ellen can marry, Dollar can get together with Luna, and the train can be run through a pacified and just area.
