One of my favorite stories about the hotel is that incident where General Grant (with his son) went unrecognized by the desk clerk who didn't give the gentleman standing before him a second thought until he realized who it was. I'm trying to remember-was it because the clerk saw Grant's signature in the guest book? After that-accommodations quickly changed!

Hey Bill, I think I remember reading about this. Didn't the clerk give Grant the best suite in the hotel?
