Translations for myth in French

Here are paragraphs from public domain books translated:
"Just one hint to you, Lestrade," drawled Holmes, before his rival vanished; "I will tell you the true solution of the matter. Lady St. Simon is a myth. There is not, and there never has been, any such person." — Écoutez, Lestrade : un mot seulement ; je vais vous donner la vraie solution. Lady Saint Simon est un mythe. Il n’y a pas de lady Saint Simon et il n’y en a jamais eu.
