The clues are in alphabetic order.
This clue appears somewhere in the middle. No answer lengths are given.
The longest grid entry is 9 letters.

Cry of joy about succeeding being at full length (two wds)

Thanks.

Not only 4 - you can enter the first 5, hankir - and that should help you see what's to go in 4dn.
You look to have the right answers - I'm unsure of the French aristo but it looks like it's 'comte' for the purposes of the clue (which would be 'county'?!).

[ProfessorMaisie]

...actually, it's French 'comt(e)s' = English 'counts', so that's ok.

[hankir]

Thanks Professor.
Does answer to houses go in Row 2 and answer to Observes go in Row 4?

[ProfessorMaisie]

No, hankir - 'houses' starts in row 6 and 'observes' in row 4.

[hankir]

Thanks Professor.
