Sweet little memory about old departed (5,9)
'sweet' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'little memory about old departed' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'little' could be 'l' (abbreviation) and 'l' is found in the answer.
'about' could be 'c' (circa) and 'c' is located in the answer.
'old' could be 'late' (I've seen this in other clues) and 'late' is found in the answer.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
Can you help me to learn more?
