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.
