Free (of) (3)

I believe the answer is:

rid

'free of' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for rid that I've seen before include "Free, deliver, clear" , "Lose, shake off" , "Disabuse" , "Free, disencumber" , "Free (person of affliction)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Star Tribune, the King Feature Syndicate, the Penny Press, The Telegraph, The Wall Street Journal, the LA Times, the Newsday, the Universal and The Sun.
