were brought to Marblehead and confined at Fort Sewall. 
The feeling against them was so intense owing to the 
inhuman treatment that American. prisioners had received 
from the British that precautionary measures had to be 
taken so they were removed to Boston. 
On July 4th, Fort Sewall was the scene of a Demo- 
cratic demonstration. ‘Their procession was escorted by 
the Lafayette Guards to the fort where the holiday ban- 
quet was held. In contrast, the Whigs sat down to their 
dinner on that holiday in Academy Hall. When the 
Civil War broke out Fort Sewall was in ruins. Owing 
to the Confederate gunboats then cruising about the coast 
attention was at once given to this exposed portion of the 
tewn upon which reposed the dilapidated fort. Four 
thousand dollars was voted to repair the fort. It was 
thoroughly repaired and considerably enlarged. Until the 
end of the war the fort was garrisoned by companies from 
other parts of Massachusetts. 
Fort Sewall is indeed a notable monument to the 
zealous patriotism of Marblehead’s citizens who took such 
an active part in the stirring and notable incidents of her 
various wars for independence. It also marks an epoch in 
ker romantic history, for the famous Sir Harry Frank- 
lend, who played such a thrilling part in the life of 
Marblehead’s noted fisher maid, Agnes Surriage, came to 
Marblehead in the autumn of 1742 to superintend the 
initial building of what is now Fort Sewall. He was then 
ccllector of the Port of. Boston. Despite the tragedy 
oi her life, Agnes Surriage eventually became Lady Agnes 
Frankland. In 1757 she shared the honors with her hus- 
band at the court of Portugal, where he was consul- 
general from the United States. Summer homes now 
rest near Fort Sewall and that of Mr. and Mrs. Walter 
C. Smith is known as Frankland Cottage.
