The difference In height between the fifth and sixth bays of this north walk, where the old and new work meet, is clev- erly veiled by beautiful tracery. Few monuments of general interest are seen in this walk. Mrs. Cibber and Mrs. Ann Crawford, the tragic actresses, are here buried. And here, but with no stone ever placed to his memory, lies the fa- mous General Burgoyne (d. 1792), "whose surrender at Saratoga lost Amer- ica to England. " He was the only son of 750 The Cloister and CJiupter Ho...use Captain Burgoyne, a man of fashion, and was educated, at the Westminster School. He eloped with the sister of his most inti- mate friend, Lady Charlotte Stanhope, daughter of the eleventh Earl of Derby, who died while he was in America. He had a varied career, having been a playwright before entering the army, and his "Maid of the Oaks" was produced at Drury Lane by Garrick in 1775. He was sent to America in 1774 to reinforce Gen- eral Gage. His surrender at Saratoga brought him into great disfavour at home.
