Here, indeed, are all the requisite ingred- ients -- romance, royalty and riches all combined. A popular young mems- ber of one of the collateral branches of the royal family weds perhaps the richest heiress in all England, grand- daughter of the late Sir Ernest Cassel, who bequeathed to her the bulk of his vast fortune; and the King and Queen, surrounded by near ly all the members of the royal family, attend the ceremony to see the Prince of Wales create a pre- cedent by acting as best man to his cousin and brother officer---the first | time that the heir apparent to the { crown, of England has ever appeared | in such a capacity. Lord Louis Mountbatten, though he bears only the courtesy of the son of a peer, is closely related to the royal family, of which, until a few years back, he ranked officially as a member. With the other members of his collateral branch, | he assumed the surname of Mount- batten in 1917, at the same time as the King assumed for himself and | his immediate family the style and | title of the "House of Windsor." It was then decided that only the direct depcendants of the King should bear | the title of prince, and the heads of the collateral branches, discarding their own titles, mostly of foreign | extraction, became British peers. The branch of the Battenbergs to which Lord Louis belongs--the new sur- name of Mountbatten is a direct translation of the German -- has a distinguished, and in some ways tragic, history. It descends from Princess Alice, third child of Queen Victoria, who married Prince Louis (afterward reigning grand duke) of Hesse, a German principality, Their daughter, Victoria, married Prince Louis of Battenberg, who made his home in England. and became a Britigh subject. " Princé Yoils entered the royal navy, in which he had a distin- guished career, and the outbreak of war in 1914 found him First Sea Lord of the Admiralty. It was he, in fact, who, i{ fmogiation with Winston Churchill, the Cabinet head of the Admiralty as First Lord, was responsible for the prompt mobilis- ation 'of the Grand Fleet, which had such a decisive effect on the course of the war. Due to his German origin, however, an agitation was worked up against him, and, in spite of the loyal support which he re- ceived from the Government, Prince Louis resigned his post. In 1917 he was created Marquess of Milford Haven, He died less than a year ago, suddenly and in somewhat re- duced efrcumstances. His second son, Lord Louis Mountbatten, whose marriage fell just short of his 23nd birthday, followed the sea like his father and like his elder brother, the present Marquess of Milford Haven. He has two years' naval service during the war as a midshipman to his credit.
