Give credit in a footnote (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

cite

(Other definitions for cite that I've seen before include "Quote (a reference)" , "for instance" , "Quote as an example or in support" , "name" , "Repeat a passage from some written work" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
