9 oxen?
Think 9a could be oxen
yes, tree
I would suggest KNEE for 6dn
Neat (horned oxen, from which neatsfoot oil is derived), beef (young ox) and beefing ... Other obsolete terms for cattle include "neat" (this use survives in "neatsfoot oil", extracted from the feet and legs of cattle), and "beefing" ...
Question Author
Thanks everyone. Can you tell me what connection 'oxen' is to neat, so I will know for the next time.
see my post @ 23.29
elliemay1 has given the connection
Question Author
Thanks elliemay1, it's always nice to know.

Cashier, thanks for input but I will go for tree as the second letter is 'r'
It is tree as young people sometimes carve their initials in a heart on a tree to swear their undying love!
