var str = 'Number 13 on the Burleigh map, the Cottage Hotel was managed by the peripatetic Charles D. ("C.D.") McKay, who previously had run the Globe Hotel in Geneseo, then the Cascade House at Portage, NY, and later went on to manage the McKay House in Perry, NY.
The reasons for his changes of venue probably had to do with the violation of local excise laws--ostensibly licenses for and taxes upon liquor, but in practice efforts to curb its consumption. Before coming to Caledonia McKay had been prosecuted by Geneseo in 1888, and later by Perry in 1896. Cottage Hotel seems to have relied, in part, upon its proximity to railroad depots located nearby. In 1894 Charles' cousin H. Ross McKay, a local farmer, purchased the property--as announced in this news clipping. Charles died in 1911.';
