Answer:

B. The Lawrence was badly damaged and drifting away from the enemy.

Explanation:

American naval commander Oliver Hazard Perry was the leader of the American ships in the war against Britain during the Battle of Lake Erie. And for his heroic act of defeating the British ships and forcing them to surrender, Commander Perry was known as the <em>"Hero of Lake Erie"</em>.

Perry's brig <em>Lawrence</em> was under heavy fire from the British naval ship. and was left with a severely disabled ship. But with no intention of giving up his flagship, Perry was rowed to another flagship <em>USS Niagara</em>. From there, he continued his attack and steered towards the British ships. His actions and resilience led to the surrender of the British ships, which was the very first time an entire British squadron had surrendered to an enemy.

Thus, the correct answer is option B.
