One of the Mannings (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

eli

'one of the mannings' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for eli that I've seen before include "Priest at Shiloh (Samuel)" , "Old Testament priest, the prophet Samuel's teacher" , "OT high priest" , "Biblical teacher of Samuel" , "Distort then untruth to get a Biblical character" .)

I've seen this clue in the Penny Press, the Wall Street Journal, the USA Today, the New York Times and the Canadiana.
