It follows Dan Maywood, a retired sergeant turned bell-ringer, and his donkey, Napoleon, who once played a prominent role in the lively goldfields. However, those days are long gone, and law and order have replaced the wild lawlessness of the past. As the town Dan resides in transforms, he reflects on a bygone era, marked by both fortune and tragedy.
