Clip fleece from (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

shear

'clip fleece from' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for shear that I've seen before include "Barber" , "Cut the wool of 14 across" , "Cutter" , "Remove a fleece" , "Fleece (a sheep)" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday.
