Mark's little girl (3)
I believe the answer is:
dot
This clue is a double definition.
'mark's' is the first definition.
(dotting is a kind of marking)
'little girl' is the second definition.
(I've seen this before)
(Other definitions for dot that I've seen before include "Full stop, period or tittle" , "Internet punctuation mark" , "Shorter of the two signals used in Morse code" , "Little mark" , "Long-ago year?" .)
