Fairly sure but as you haven't said how many letters or if you have any filled in, I'm only guessing but it fits the clue.

Thank you all, but I'm not totally sure about SOLUTE. I have 15D=INTERCEPT, giving 1st letter as "T"
24D=CAMEL, giving 3rd letter as "L".
16D=NOT AT HOME, giving5th letter as "E".
19D seems to fit O.K.

To make it interesting, I'm none too sure of these answers. I think I'm in trouble somewhere!! Anyone else care to sort me out (figuratively)?

To you all, I send many thanks. I think I only need one more to complete it. (I sort of missed it when I looked the grid over before. Sorreeee.

6D-LACK OF TACT MAKES GEORGIA TURN TO CHURCH BY LAKE,

I have-- 5A=LAGGARD,Giving 1st letter as "G".
10A=UNITE, giving 3rd letter as a "U".
12A=REHOUSE, giving 5th letter as a "H".
13A=MOUNTAIN RANGE, giving 7th letter as an "R".
18A=MENTAL PATIENT,giving last letter as an "E".


Sorry to be such a pain, but this one's really got me tearing out my hair! I think they've changed their compiler. Don't you hate when that happens? Anyway, thank you all!

Square Bear....I'm sorreeee! I just thought that any one that was brave enought to answer would have the grid in front of them. You got to be brave to come up with ANY answer you'd post without the grid. I appreciate you!
