Showed the way (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

led

'showed the way' is the definition.
(lead can mean to show someone the way)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for led that I've seen before include "was in the van" , "Emitter of light" , "Paved the way" , "Was guiding" , "Came first" .)

I've seen this clue in the USA Today, the Penny Press, The Sun, The Star Tribune and the Newsday.
