doah=door?
This is a quotation from Robertson Davies's "The Rebel Angels".
A Big Bloomsbury Man is visiting us, you know? And his message to the world about the mighty past of which he was a tiny part was chiefly this sort of thing: ‘Of course in Bloomsbury in the great days we were all absolutely mad. The servants were mad. You might go to sit down and find a plate of food on youah chah. Because the maids were simply mad. . . We had a red doah. There were lots of green doahs and blue doahs and brown doahs, but ours was a red doah. Completely MAD!’
I understand that "youah chah" is "your chair", but what is a "doah"? A door?
Thanks in advance
