State a banker's orders (8)
I believe the answer is:
nebraska
'state' is the definition.
(Nebraska is an example)
'a banker's orders' is the wordplay.
'orders' indicates an anagram.
'a'+'bankers'='abankers'
'abankers' with letters rearranged gives 'NEBRASKA'.
(Other definitions for nebraska that I've seen before include "Where Lincoln found" , "Midwest state - Springsteen album" , "US Midwest state" , "Mid-western US state" , "Wading bird" .)
