Lawrence —, explorer who died on the second Antarctic expedition of R F Scott (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

oates

(Other definitions for oates that I've seen before include "sacrifice" , "man who achieved 1 ac [POLE POSITION]" , "Very gallant gentleman" , "Member of Scott's expedition - "Popish Plot" conspirator" , "Captain -, polar explorer with Scott" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
