Bleed a corrupt minor official (6)
I believe the answer is:
beadle
'minor official' is the definition.
(historical term for a minor public official)
'bleed a corrupt' is the wordplay.
'corrupt' is an anagram indicator.
'bleed'+'a'='bleeda'
'bleeda' anagrammed gives 'BEADLE'.
(Other definitions for beadle that I've seen before include "Old poorhouse official (eg Mr Bumble)" , "University employee" , "College official" , "Ceremonial officer of a church" , "Old parish officer" .)
