This mildly cryptic crossword is usually quite easy but I'm stuck on four today! Any ideas?
Sailor's knot (3,4) ??? c?l?
One who votes for another man (5) ???n?
Fragrant plant belonging to you and me (5) ???n?
Just the party for the chaser! (6) no letters yet.
The letters given above are correct if the answer to 'Gun rule' is canon
