In the morning Fabbri arrived accompanied by Gaetano Montanari (known as Sumaren) who now replaced Dighèn who was not familiar with the new places that the fugitives were to pass through. The hut was not considered safe for a long talk so they took over a boat and crossed the Taglio to a densely wooded area of the Staggio del Bardello, where Fabbri explained to Garibaldi the plan formulated by the patriots of Ravenna to deliver him to safety. The following day Fabbri and Faggioli went off to Sant'Alberto with Fabbri's promise to return in the afternoon. The at 4 p.m. Fabbri took his leave of the fugitives together with Dighèn who, with great emotion, received from Garibaldi the gift of a cloak which he was to keep as a souvenir (*)

Sumaren, following instructions received, then took the fugitives in his own boat to the bank of the Baiona canal of the Baiona tideway but due to some misunderstanding could not find the patriots of Ravenna who should have been waiting there for Garibaldi.

He then went on to where the Baiona canal joins the Corsini canal. After hiding the fugitives in the hinterland of the tideway, Sumaren set off towards Porto Corsini and bumped into an acquaintance known as Bòliga (Pietro Sarti) and together they agreed to hide the fugitives in the Pontaccio hut (20) between the pinewood and the lagoon. Bòliga immediately went to find his cousin Francesco Sarti at the old factory (Porto Corsini) and with him took the fugitives in his boat to the hut where they arrived at 7.30 p.m. and forced the door to enter. Garibaldi decided to go to the defence of Venice and immediately sent the two Sarti cousins to find a boatman in order to get there.

The Pontaccio hut, here indicated by this name, then became Garibaldi's hut because it offered a place of rest to the General and because it provided a breathing space in which to prepare the second 'trafila' of Ravenna which lead to the saving of Garibaldi.

Years later, in order to ensure the conservation of the hut, the society of the Democratic Union of Ravenna bought the land by notarial deed of 20-8-1867 signed by its managers and directors Carlo Missiroli, Gaetano Savini and Antonio Rambaldi. When the Union was dissolved in 1874 some of th4 members, at the initiative of Primo Uccellini, constituted the Garibaldi's Hut Conservation society in 1879 of which the first statute was approved on 21 October 1882. In this document one reads that its consists of a maximum of 52 persons and that the aim was, and still is, to "maintain unalienable rights over Garibaldi's Hut and keep it in scrupulously good condition so that it can be passed down as a sacred monument of affection and for teaching".
