An iron cross taken from this site ended up buried in the Harvard University archives for 200 years, brought by veterans from a campaign launched after Paul Mascarene’s successful defense of a nearby city. In Boston, British officials tried to press into service veterans from a campaign to this site, causing the Knowles Riot. An attack on this site ended hostilities sparked by destroyed fishing equipment in a raid on (*) Canso. Because of exploits at this site, William Pepperrell was the only American to receive a British baronet title. The British received Madras in exchange for handing this fortress back to France by the Treaty of Aix-la-Chapelle. Securing this fortress opened the sea route for James Wolfe’s capture of Quebec. For 10 points, the British twice captured what fortress on Cape Breton Island in Nova Scotia? ■END■
