***********
Hotel Hough was a hotel in Schenectady. Below is a postcard from circa 1917 showing both Hotel Hough and Hotel Vendome.  Hotel Hough is on the right--you can see its vertical sign.


The garage Stanford calls "Burtiss" was A.R. Burtiss Motor Company, which sold and repaired cars. It was located at 148-152 Jay Street in Schenectady.
