Tree's last professional undertaking was a visit to Los Angeles in 1915 fulfilling a contract with a film company.
He was in America for the greater part of 1915 and 1916.
He returned to England in 1917 and died, aged 64, from pulmonary blood clots.
According to writer Vera Brittain, he died suddenly in the arms of her friend, the novelist Winifred Holtby, then aged 19 and working as a nursing assistant at a fashionable London nursing home where Tree was recuperating from surgery to repair a broken leg.
His remains were cremated, and his ashes rest at Hampstead cemetery.
