Raise (5)

Ross

'raise' is the definition.
(hoisting is a kind of raising)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for hoist that I've seen before include "Winch" , "piece of lifting gear" , "Lift up; device for this" , "Lifting tackle" , "One that could raise" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian, the LA Times, the King Feature Syndicate, the Evening Standard, the Sydney Morning Herald, The Telegraph, The Sunday Times, The Mirror, The Star Tribune, The Times, The New York Times and the Penny Press.
