Inventor Otis (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

elisha

'inventor otis' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for elisha that I've seen before include "Elijah's successor" , "Old Testament prophet" , "Prophet; Thirteen across (anag.)" , "Hebrew prophet" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times and The Wall Street Journal.
