There is probably more than a kernel of truth in this bit of etiquette humor —And regardless of whether the resort is ranked first, second or third-class, anyone with a lick of common sense tries to avoid speaking to this guy! |
The Candelaria True Fissure, says: A gentleman just returned from a round of the watering places, gives this summary of the schedule of etiquette at such places; A first-class summer resort is one at which the cottagers will not speak to the hotel guests. A second-class resort is one at which the hotel guests will not speak to the cottagers. A third-class resort is one at which everybody tries to have a good time.— The Truckee Republican, 1883
