Essayist Francis (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

bacon

'essayist francis' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for bacon that I've seen before include "Pork rashers" , "Meat in rashers" , "Cured pig-meat" , "Cured back or side of pork" , "Cured meat from pig" .)

I've seen this clue in the Penny Press.
