Sorry sort (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

atoner

'sorry sort' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for atoner that I've seen before include "Person making amends for wrongs committed" , "One who makes amends for wrongs done" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times and the King Feature Syndicate.
