Meet without hesitation in OT location (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

gath

'ot location' is the definition.
(city in the Old Testament)

'meet without hesitation' is the wordplay.
'meet' becomes 'gather' ('gather' can be a synonym of 'meet').
'without' is a deletion indicator.
'hesitation' becomes 'er'.
'gather' with 'er' removed is 'GATH'.

'in' is the link.

(Other definitions for gath that I've seen before include "Some Indian music" , "place where there were to be no listeners" , "Home of Goliath (OT)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
