Norridgewock siege and the rise of Sebastian Bale
In 1721 Noridgewock faced a rising warlike mood as Sebastain Bale's influence intertwined with plans from LaChasse and Castine. A 90-canoe flotilla threatened English lands, demanding English withdrawal within three weeks. Jesuit Castine’s role sparked arrests and raids, with nine northern shore families seized in retaliation as settlers fled to Bay and Cork.
