I had to comment on the glaring mistake in your article about the pending closure of Tarry's in Journal (March 29).

Sorry as I am (I, for one, shall miss them), to say that they have "seen the dawn of two millennia" is a gross exaggeration. To have done this, they would have to have been in business for 65 years before William the Conqueror set foot on our shores! They have seen the dawn of two centuries.
