with one _l_ only."--_Ib._ "They were offended at such as _combated_ these notions."--_Robertson cor._ "From _libel_, come _libelled, libeller, libelling, libellous_; from _grovel, grovelled, groveller, grovelling_; from _gravel, gravelled_, and _gravelling_."--_Webster cor._ "_Woolliness_, the state of being woolly."--_Worcester's Dict._ "Yet he has spelled chapelling, bordeller, _medalist, metaline, metalist, metalize_, clavellated, etc, with _ll_, contrary to his rule."--_Webster cor._ "Again, he has spelled _cancellation_ and _snivelly_ with single _l_, and cupellation, pannellation wittolly, with _ll_."--_Id._ "_Oily_, fatty, greasy, containing oil, glib."--_Walker cor._ "_Medalist_, one curious in medals; _Metalist_, one skilled in metals."--_Walker's Rhym.
