Siege and Surrender at St Sebastian Castle Fortifications
A historical report notes the garrison at the Castle of St Sebastian repulsing an assault after a siege. The Duke of Berwick considered blockade methods while negotiations yielded terms for the garrison to march out with arms, colors, drums, and limited cannon. The capitulation allowed free movement to the army or Pampeluna with provisions as specified.
