Save; deliver (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

rescue

This clue is a double definition.

'save' is the first definition.
(rescuing is a kind of saving)

'deliver' is the second definition.
(I know that deliver can be written as rescue)

(Other definitions for rescue that I've seen before include "Deliver from danger" , "Save from harm" , "liberation" , "Save someone from a dangerous situation" , "Secure (anag) - deliverance" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
