[1] A man dressed as a monk accompanied by a woman arrives to Middletown with a statue of St Absalom on a wagon.

The man in monk clothes, who is called ”the priest” (Il Santo) objects that killings were not part of the agreement.

Jarret’s plan, however, is to await an Indian guide who knows the way through the desert, and then kill everybody and burn the town to get rid of witnesses.

When the furious Jarret has all the citizens dragged out into the street and starts shooting people the telegraph operator attempts to send an alarm and is shot.

Suddenly Billy Rhum appears as the sheriff, and suggests that the men of the town – that is Jarret and the gang – join the posse.
