The first recipe is a variation of the one from the Savoy Cocktail Book. The second is a variation on the one from Drinks Long & Short. I’m curious about the first one and will give it a try. And “Old Etonman” is a hoot, probably his translation of L’Ancien D’Eton.

Oh, gin and Lillet…that sounds like the Vesper Martini…popularized by Ian Fleming and attributed to Ivar Bryce…WHO BOTH WENT TO ETON. The Vesper is a vodka martiniized Old Etonian.
