To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Some years ago, portions of these works were visible, but the last vestige of them was destroyed to make way for the brick house at the corner of Congdon and Bowen streets.
This fort was probably the only one in the town built from plans prepared before the work was commenced, the others being thrown up according to lines laid out on the ground at the time the work was done.
The Prospect Hill or College Hill fort, says Stone, in his French Allies, was " three hun- dred by one hundred and fifty ...feet, within the parapet. It was surrounded by a fosse, or ditch, and was capable of mounting fifty- eight guns." On the high land on the west side of the river, southerly from what was then called the road to Pawtuxet (now Broad Street), was a fort which bore the name Fort Sullivan.
While there is no recorded evidence to IN RHODE ISLAND 75 show when it was built, the name given to it suggests that it was thrown up during the time when General John Sullivan was in command of this department, and that was in 1778.
