Died. Lillie Langtry (Lady de Bathe), 76, of Monte Carlo, onetime actress and "toast of two continents"; of influenza; in Monte Carlo. Her real name was Emelie Charlotte ("Lillie") Le Breton. She was born in St. Helier, Isle of Jersey, the daughter of the very Reverend Dean of the Isle. She had six brothers. To the island, in a tempest, came Irish yachtsman Edward Langtry, son of a Belfast ship-merchant. He was offered refuge with the Le Bretons, fell in love with the gloriously budding daughter, married her two years later, took her to London. There, in her 20's, she neglected Husband Langtry for social acclaim climaxed by the openly effusive attentions of Albert Edward, Prince of Wales (later Edward VII). Lillie became an actress, enraptured England and the U. S. Her art lacked fire, but people went in droves with their opera glasses. In 1897 Lillie divorced Husband Langtry, long languishing mentally, physically, financially. He died, a year and a half later, in an insane asylum.

Lillie Langtry was painted by Burne-Jones, Watts, Poynter, Millais (whose title "Jersey Lily" became her nickname). Langtry hats, shoes, gowns, coiffeur (knot at nape of neck) were standards of fashion. The Earl of Lonsdale and Sir George Chetwynd went fisticuffing for her sake in Hyde Park. Frederick Gebhardt, U. S. sportsman & socialite, built her a Manhattan mansion which still stands. Passing through a little Texas town, to which she had once been invited for the opening of a Lillie Langtry saloon, she was welcomed at the poker table, and the town was renamed Langtry.

She once said: "I got on famously with Prince Edward until I put that piece of ice down his neck. ... I liked Oscar Wilde a great deal, but he got a bit tiresome, coming around so often. . . . Once, after I had gone to bed, I heard a great deal of clatter downstairs, and my husband came up. 'My dear,' he said, 'if you must have those wretched poets sleeping around the place, can't you have them sleep in the garden? This is the third time I have stumbled over one of them.' " She once quoted the Prince of Wales as pleading: " 'Lillie, darling, do not become an American. If you do, it will cause an international war.' "

His son, Admiral Sir Sydney Robert Fremantle, retired last year. Admiral Sir Edmund's snowy whiskers often festooned a royal carriage at the opening of Parliament. On his gist birthday he criticized the wary tactics of Admiral Jellicoe at Jutland (1916). "When you see ships," he stated, "you are supposed to fight them. I did in my day, and we took risks."
