Red Flannel Belief Spurs Spinster Charity Legacy
A historic will promised annual red flannel for two deserving spinsters, but a Lords committee revealed later that any colour flannel is clear and funds cover only one yard for two recipients. The Welsh origin of flannel and the famed red hue's supposed warmth are noted, including a 1797 anecdote of French troops mistaking red petticoats for redcoats at Fishguard.
