In 1687 Assistance was rebuilt at Deptford as a 48-gun fourth-rate ship of the line.[2] Life aboard her when cruising in the Mediterranean in 1675-6 is described in the diary of Henry Teonge. She was rebuilt for a second time at Deptford in 1699, relaunching as a fourth rate of between 46 and 54 guns.[3] In 1702 she was attached to the squadron of Commodore John Leake for service to Newfoundland at the outbreak of the War of the Spanish Succession. Leake sent her to destroy the fortifications of the isle of Saint Pierre.[6] Her third rebuild was carried out at Limehouse, from where she was relaunched on 16 February 1713 as a 50-gun fourth rate to the 1706 Establishment.[4] Assistance was part of the naval task force sent to Scotland to help subdue the Jacobite rising of 1719. On 21 March 1720 she was ordered to be taken to pieces at Woolwich for what was to be her final rebuild. She relaunched as a 50-gun fourth rate to the 1719 Establishment on 25 November 1725 and sunk as a breakwater in 1745.[5] Notes1. ^1 Lavery, Ships of the Line, vol. 1, p. 160. 2. ^1 Lavery, Ships of the Line, vol.1 , p. 163. 3. ^1 Lavery, Ships of the Line, vol. 1, p. 167. 4. ^1 Lavery, Ships of the Line, vol. 1, p. 168. 5. ^1 Lavery, Ships of the Line, vol. 1, p. 170. 6. ^{{cite DCB |last=Godfrey |first=Michael |url=http://www.biographi.ca/en/bio/leake_john_2E.html|title=Leake, John |volume=2 |accessdate=2010-03-31}} References{{refbegin}}
