Endure - strange to relate (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tolerate

'endure' is the definition.
(I know that endure can be written as tolerate)

'strange to relate' is the wordplay.
'strange' is an anagram indicator.
'to'+'relate'='torelate'
'torelate' with letters rearranged gives 'TOLERATE'.

(Other definitions for tolerate that I've seen before include "Withstand" , "Suffer" , "Turn a blind eye to" , "Family relative" , "Put up with something or somebody" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
