<subfield code="a">Diary of a refugee from Newton, Long Island, who had settled in Rhinebeck, New York. Lawrence was a ranking major of a militia company. His narrative includes a meeting with Frederick Jay, younger brother of John Jay, with whom he set up the Patriotic Trading Company. On his way to Boston he met with Alexander Hamilton, who was serving as George Washington's aide-de-camp, and was asked to assist the recently arrived squadron commanded by Admiral Charles Henri d'Estaing as a pilot on a voyage from Sandy Hook to Narragansett Bay. This diary covers that voyage, the operation in Narragansett Bay, and d'Estaing's skirmishes with Lord Howe off of Rhode Island. It ends at the author's disembarkation from the ship he piloted under d'Estaing's command.</subfield>
