Question: Who did Honora Edgeworth decline the hand of, even as she had a romantic engagement with a British Army officer hanged as a spy by the Continental Army?
Sentence (from "Benjamin Lincoln"): Lincoln is notable for being involved in three major surrenders during the war: his participation in the Battles of Saratoga (sustaining a wound shortly afterward) contributed to John Burgoyne's surrender of a British army, he oversaw the largest American surrender of the war at the 1780 Siege of Charleston, and, as George Washington's second in command, he formally accepted the British surrender at Yorktown.
Relevant evidence: No
