. His grave in the north aisle of the nave was opened
when the present pavement was laid down in 1736, and a chalice and paten
taken from it.

#William La Zouche# (1342-1352) had been Dean of York. When Edward III.
set out for the French wars he left Zouche warden of the northern parts
of the kingdom, and as such he defeated the Scots at Neville's Cross,
near Durham, 1364. He built, or began, a chantry on the south wall of
the choir, which was destroyed by Thoresby. He died at Cawood, and was
buried in the nave of the minster.

#John Of Thoresby# (1352-1373) had been the King's Proctor at Rome,
Master of the Rolls, Bishop of St. David's and Worcester, and Lord
Chancellor of England. He drew up a famous catechism in Latin translated
into English. In his time the controversy between York and Canterbury
finally came to an end. The Archbishop of Canterbury was to be styled
Primate of All England, the Archbishop of York, Primate of England. Each
also was to be allowed to carry his cross erect in the province of the
other.

In 1361 he began the present choir of the minster, contributing L200 a
year to it during his life. He died at Bishopthorpe. It has been said
that Urban VI. made him a cardinal, but this is probably not true. He
was buried in his own Lady Chapel. #Alexander Neville# (1374-1388) was a
Canon of York, and high in the favour of Richard II. Consequently, on
Richard's overthrow he was imprisoned in Rochester Castle, whence he
escaped, and was translated to St. Andrews in 1386, but the Scots would
have none of him, not acknowledging Urban as Pope. Thereupon, it is
said, he fell to teaching a school at Louvain, where he died in 1392.

#Thomas Fitzalan# of Arundel (1388-1396), son of the Earl of Arundel,
was translated to York from Ely, and had been Lord Chancellor. He was a
great benefactor to the church and manors of the see, and gave much
plate for the service of the minster. He was in 1390 translated to
Canterbury, the first Archbishop of York to be so advanced.

#Robert Waldby# (1397-1398) had been an Augustinian friar and professor
of theology at Toulouse. He was created Archbishop of Dublin and Bishop
of Chichester before his translation to York. He died and was buried at
Westminster.

#Richard Scrope# (1398-1405) was the son of Lord Chancellor Scrope, and
was himself Lord Chancellor of England and Bishop of Lichfield. He
received his preferment from Richard II., of whom he was a firm
supporter, though
