Anthony. Selecting the extreme northwest point of the island, Colonel Lawrence laid off a rectangular space, four hundred feet each way, and surrounded it by walls of hewn timber resting upon a substruc- ture of stone. At the northeast, southeast, and southwest angles, he caused block houses to be built, and these he provided with cannon. On the interior, against one side of the square, were erected the soldiers' barracks. They were of hewn timber, the roofs being made to slope inward, that it ...might be difficult for the Indians to set them on fire. When com- pleted, the work was christened Fort Arm- strong, in honor of the then Secretary of War. Coming suddenly into the view of the lonely voyager up the Mississippi, its whitewashed BLACK HAWK AND KEOKUK. 1 17 walls and towers appeared, it has been said, not unlike the outworks of one of "those enchanted castles in an uninhabited desert so well de- scribed in the Arabian Nights Entertainments.
