				A Prisoner's First View ... El Dorado Police "Sally 
				Port."
"Sally 
				ports" were a feature of castles and fortresses, a 
				closely-guarded opening or door in the wall of a fortified 
				building designed for the quick passage of troops. One of the 
				primary uses of these doors was to mount quick attacks on 
				whatever enemy army might be besieging the castle at the moment, 
				and here's where we meet "sally." A "sally," from the Latin "salire" 
				meaning "to jump," was originally a sudden rush out of a 
				besieged position, a lightning attack designed to surprise the 
				enemy. "Sally" in this original sense first appeared around 
				1560, and "sally port" is first found around 1649. "Sally" has 
				since acquired the broader sense of "an excursion or escapade." 
				And since castles and fortresses are in short supply these days, 
				"sally port" has gradually come to mean any guarded doorway or 
				opening.
