The Frankfort House of Rothschild was dissolved in Nineteen Hundred One. The London firm still continues, but I am advised that the Rothschilds, while interesting in a historic way, are no longer looked upon as a world power.
Letizia, the mother of ten, is worthy of more space than I am able here to give her. There are those who say she was the real founder of the House of Rothschild. She died aged exactly one hundred, in the Red Shield, where she was married and where all of her children were born.
She outlived the fall of Napoleon just forty years. She had a fine and pardonable pride in her kingly sons.
Politics and world problems interested her. She was sane and sensible and happy to the last.
