Sick of villagers (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ill

'sick' is the definition.
(similar in meaning)

'of villagers' is the wordplay.
'of' says the answer is hidden in the clue.
'ILL' is hidden within 'villagers'.

(Other definitions for ill that I've seen before include "In short, the state of Chicago" , "Dicky" , "Sickly" , "Where to find Chicago" , "Faulty" .)

I've seen this clue in The Mirror.
