You actually don't need to solder the ground wire to the ferrule, all you need to do is just bare the end of the wire, poke it through the hole till it comes through to the hole that the ferrule fits in, making sure that the bared end of the wire protrudes from the side of the hole, next bend the bared end of the wire so that it points towards the bottom of the hole that the ferrule fits in, and then push the ferrule into place, the ferrule should then make contact with the bared end of the ground wire.
