He hunted and fished and rede with them; he lived as they lived, jolaning in their curious customs and ceremonies. But, as Law- rence once told a friend in this city, he made a hurried and thrilling es- cape from the tribe to ‘the nearest settlement when the chief made known his wish that he would have the white man marry his_daughter, Returning to Woodstock Lawrence’s adventurous spirit was appealed to by the opportunities for excitement that were presented at the outbreak of the Civil war and on August 21, 1861, with two of his’brothers, he en- listed in Company A, Sixth Connect- icut volunteers.
