==Volunteer service==
When an invasion scare in 1859 led to the rise of the Volunteer movement, Laurie joined the ranks of Queen Victoria's Rifles. One of the leaders of the movement was the journalist Alfred Bate Richards, who personally raised a 'Workmen's Brigade' in London. This unit was adopted as the 3rd City of London Rifle Volunteer Corps, and Laurie was one of the first officers commissioned, as a Captain, dated 26 April 1861. He was promoted to Major in 1864, and when Richards retired in 1867 Laurie succeeded him as Lieutenant-Colonel Commandant〔Planck, pp. 2–5.〕〔Beckett, pp. 19, 61.〕
