Some time ago, I raised the question regarding the reference to "Dorcas" and someone on TarBoard provided the following reply, which I archived in my Ransome NOTES:
Winter Holiday
Is this a Dorcas party? asked Mrs Blackett (WH9) when they are making quarantine flags from scraps of material; a reference to the New Testament disciple Dorcas who made clothes for the poor; see wikipedia:Dorcas.
Don't know who provided this input - but thanks somebody...
