— out an existence (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

eke

(Other definitions for eke that I've seen before include "addition to Scots" , "Make a laborious living" , "long ago" , "To -- something out is to make it go further" , "To -- out is to add to" .)

I've seen this clue in the King Feature Syndicate.
