Acquit (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pardon

'acquit' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for pardon that I've seen before include "Grant forgiveness" , "indulgence" , "What was that you said" , "Forgive - eh?" , "Forgive; come again?" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times, The Sun and the King Feature Syndicate.
