He gets an endowment (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

grant

This clue is a double definition.

'he' is the first definition.

'endowment' is the second definition.
(thesaurus)

'gets an' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for grant that I've seen before include "Permit" , "Bestow; bursary" , "yield" , "Confer" , "former president" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
