Deacon (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

elder

'deacon' is the definition.
(thesaurus)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for elder that I've seen before include "Church official; tree" , "Older or two" , "Senior - church official" , "Patriarch" , "more mature" .)

I've seen this clue in the Penny Press.
