Appears to refer to ALL:
"The bible saith Christ died for all, and A double L, does not spell part, nor some, nor few, but it means all: Well, now if all Christ died for will be saved, and none of them can be lost, then Universalism must be true, => and you cannot deny it. The bible saith, Christ gave himself for ALL. -- 1 Tim. ii. 4, 6; 1 John ii. 2. And A double L does not spell part, nor some, nor few, but it means all: "Rev. Lorenzo Dow"

Subject: [VA-HIST] "A-double-L-part people"
In the several antebellum editions of the journal of Lorenzo Dow, an
early-19th-century Methodist itinerant preacher active in Virginia, N.C.
and elsewhere, Dow frequently refers to "A-double-L-part people" as
adversaries who sometimes disrupted his preaching, etc.
Anyone know what "A-double-L-part people" refers to?
