That fellow greeting mayor at the front (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

him

'that fellow' is the definition.
('him' refers to a man)

'greeting mayor at the front' is the wordplay.
'greeting' becomes 'hi' (hi is a kind of greeting).
'at the front' suggests taking the first letters.
The first letter of 'mayor' is 'm'.
'hi'+'m'='HIM'

(Other definitions for him that I've seen before include "Objective male pronoun" , "That man" , "Proper character" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
