Sad exclamation (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

alas

'sad exclamation' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for alas that I've seen before include "Cry of woe" , "I'm sorry to say" , "Archaic exclamation of sorrow or regret" , "Regretfully!" , "Lackaday" .)

I've seen this clue in the Penny Press.
