Clear (of) (3)
I believe the answer is:
rid
'clear of' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is the entire clue.
(Other definitions for rid that I've seen before include "Free from something unpleasant" , "Free, disencumber" , "Free, relieve" , "Throw off, unburden" , "Free (someone of something unwanted)" .)
