Papal messenger (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

legate

'papal messenger' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for legate that I've seen before include "Envoy representing the Pope" , "Vatican emissary" , "Envoy - pope's representative" , "Papal envoy from Galtee" , "messenger for the Pope" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald and The Telegraph.
