Bore baby of French revolutionary (5)
I believe the answer is:
toted
'bore' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
'baby of french revolutionary' is the wordplay.
'baby' becomes 'tot' (I've seen this before).
'of french' becomes 'de' ('of' in French).
'revolutionary' shows that the letters should be reversed in order (letters revolve around).
'de' back-to-front is 'ed'.
'tot'+'ed'='TOTED'
(Other definitions for toted that I've seen before include "Lugged" , "Carried - conveyed" , "Carried (a gun?)" , "Carried (something heavy)" , "Bore" .)
