Servant kept making daughter run (8)
I believe the answer is:
retainer
'servant' is the definition.
(I know that servant can be written as retainer)
I cannot understand how the remainder of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for retainer that I've seen before include "Fee could be the answer" , "Down-payment for Eritrean" , "Long-standing family servant" , "Old servant - fee paid in advance" , "A money deposit or an old servant" .)
