Default 'Til Lex checks ...

Sir, Lex should check his quotes. Today's column has a heading " 'Til
death do us part". My Book of Common Prayer has it thus: "Till death us
do part". Apart from the word order, Lex uses an ugly non-word: " 'til"
is not in the dictionary. Even Alf Garnett got the quote right!
