FUN FACT TIME

John Laurens had a significant interest in the natural sciences, and he was also a talented artist. These paintings are speculated to be his work, and (assuming that Laurens is in fact the artist) you’ll see that plants and animals were the major focus of his work.
When John was around the age of 16, Alexander Garden (a naturalist in South Carolina) asked John to make a sketch of a turtle species that he was describing for a scientific journal. Here’s the story:
One October day, Garden received a very welcome present, probably from Lachlin McIntosh, who lived in Darien, Georgia…His gift was a large soft-shelled turtle, very common in the Savannah and Altamaha Rivers but fairly rare in the Charles Town area. The turtle, a female, weighed about thirty-five pounds…That he might remember how this curious animal appeared alive, he employed Mr. Leslie, an artist recommended by Henry Peronneau, to make a sketch. Knowing that Ellis would be interested, he asked Henry Laurens’ son, John, to make a copy of Leslie’s drawing. John was very clever with a pencil and spent much of his time at the Gardens. Garden considered him something of a genius, with enough application to make good use of his talents. In fact, he was certain that John, with the proper university training, would be ‘a joy and delight to his father, as well as an ornament to his country.’ John was thrilled with the live turtle. He spent many hours watching it, but neither he, Garden, nor the small Garden daughters were successful in finding any food to tempt the turtle.
So based on John’s interest in animals/the natural sciences and the line “John was thrilled with the live turtle,” I’ve basically headcanoned John as a turtle lover (and let’s be real, he probably was).
Here’s John’s turtle art as well, which was published in the scientific journal Philosophical Transactions in 1771

wow, was not expecting that...

I assumed it to be a meme or something like Lafayette and the "oui oui baguette Eiffel tower" 

That's nice to know, thanks

hold up, that makes me think...

does that mean Lafayette and the "oui oui baguette Eiffel tower" isn't a meme?

I mean he is french...

I must be the most uneducated hamilton fan >^<
