Plot Overview

Benson and his boy, Healey, kills Mr. and Mrs. Dawson and takes over the toll road and home they own. Upon arriving back from a cattle drive, Davey (who's in love with Ellen Dawson, the daughter) rides into Santa Fe and tells Sam about the trouble. Sam is upset when he finds Ellen Dawson inside the house with Benson and Healey. He becomes even more upset when Healey declares she is now his wife. Benson tells Sam that if anyone tries to open the gate to the toll road they will be shot. Sam informs Coleman and his boys about this, but when Davey sees Ellen come out to fetch water he becomes enraged and goes to get her. Sam has no choice but to shoot Davey before he gets himself killed by Benson. But this is only the beginning.
