Notes: A satirical response to Joseph Seligman’s denial of admission to the Grand Union Hotel in Saratoga, N.Y., as a registered guest. Begins: "In Saratoga’s Grand Hotel / The common people cannot dwell, / The clerk will stare and ask you quick / Be kind enough to show you [sic] / Religious Certificate," and concludes, "The question will then arise / Must all the ladies do likewise? / The clerk will not with such affront / Make every woman show her / Religious Certificate."
