Happen to come later (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ensue

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'happen' is the first definition.
(I've seen this before)

'come later' is the second definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'to' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for ensue that I've seen before include "Follow afterwards" , "Result in a particular way" , "Come about, result in" , "Transpire" , "Turn out" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail and The Irish Independent.
