Sir, – I enjoyed reading Alfie Mulligan’s obituary (April 21st) having spent many happy times imbibing in Hartigan’s. A rite of passage for many customers who may have enjoyed themselves too much, was to be asked to leave. Usually Alfie gave the orders and Evelyn executed them with aplomb. Luckily, all was forgiven the next day! – Yours, etc,
