Help please parsing a clue in an old Everyman:
7 Across: My daughter's to advise public prosecutor (4,8)
Answer: Lord Advocate
I understand Lord Advocate = Public Prosecutor and Advocate = Advise, but can't see how My daughter's = Lord. What am I missing?

Lor! = my! & d = daughter & advocate (to advise)
'lor(d!)' (my!) + 'd(aughter'[ha]s)' + 'advocate' (to advise)
