What might be Beth’s landlord? (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

letter

I believe this is a double definition.

'what might be beth's' is the first definition.
(beth is a letter of the Hebrew alphabet)

'landlord?' is the second definition.
(landlords let property)

(Other definitions for letter that I've seen before include "Written message" , "Alphabetic character" , "Alphabetic symbol" , "Eg, A" , "Form of correspondence" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
