a Rothschild gathering at Mentmore to see the 19th century out. I think we mustered 24 in all—R. [Rosebery] & his 3 unmarried children, the Crewes, Natty & his two sons, the Leos & their three boys, the Arthur Sassoons ... Rosebery after dinner proposed “prosperity to the House of Rothschild” in a touching little speech, which elicited tears from Natty and Leo.
