Hannibal leading Carthaginian's last stand (7)
I believe the answer is:
lectern
'stand' is the definition.
(lectern is a kind of stand)
'hannibal leading carthaginian's last' is the wordplay.
'hannibal' becomes 'Lecter'.
'leading' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'last' suggests the final letters.
The final letter of 'carthaginian' is 'n'.
'lecter'+'n'='LECTERN'
(Other definitions for lectern that I've seen before include "Speaker's stand" , "Slanted reading desk" , "speeches may come from this" , "Bible stand" , "Desk or stand with a slanted top used to hold text" .)
