Notes & Asides,.
-- Dear Mr. Buckley: You were wrong to say (April 21) that you were wrong and your correspondent was right in claiming "averral" doesn't exist just because it is not in some dictionaries.
It is in the OED, marked, as you so often are by foolish modernists, as obsolete.
Besides, I'd trust your English more than any dictionary.
