extract doesn't seem quite right, but there isn't anything better with those letters.

That's what I thought but still seems wrong ,I had letters from the following .
47d(10) soiled b????????? (Besmirched) gives the E
58d(6) lightness l????? (Levity ) gives the T
65d(4) hindmost part (rear) gives the A
59d(6) parsiminous ( scanty ) gives the last letter T

So not sure if any of those answers wrong ?

Chambers gives 'Extract' as synonyms for both 'choose' and 'select'
