@adippered,
As you haven't given letters with question marks for missing letters, these are only guesses.
35a possesses
50a theft
65a cab driver
47d electric fence
56d astronomer
Need letters to attempt the missing answers.

@adippered,
Back again. Its bugging me now. Are you sure 35a is 9 letters and not 7? The answer to me should be possess. Posse (sheriffs mob) with ss (on board ship) and that = have.
81a serialise. anagram of iris lee as.
Need letters for the others....at the moment!!!!
