Carrier, holder (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bearer

I believe this is a double definition.

'carrier' is the first definition.
(I know that carrier can be written as bearer)

'holder' is the second definition.
(bearer is a kind of holder)

(Other definitions for bearer that I've seen before include "Mourner carrying the coffin at a funeral" , "Coffin carrier (one paid on demand?)" , "He carries something, stretcher or news" , "One who carries, maybe a coffin" , "He presents bill" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
