Different sort he gives to the rest (6)
I believe the answer is:
others
'to the rest' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'different sort he' is the wordplay.
'different' indicates an anagram.
'sort'+'he'='sorthe'
'sorthe' is an anagram of 'OTHERS'.
'gives' is the link.
(Other definitions for others that I've seen before include "Not these, alternatives" , "People in throes - not us" , "Certainly not us" , "Different ones" , "Not the same one already mentioned" .)
