The renowned historian Frederick William Wallace wrote, "It was a memorable event in Canadian ship-building annals when his big ship took the water, and had it been elsewhere but in a quiet little Nova Scotia town on the banks of the Shubenacadie River, there would have been a great furor, and Lawrence's genius and skill would have been proclaimed to the four corners of the earth."
