  only member in household, renting. The house numbers are difficult to read, but may be a separate household in #116, which may be the hotel. Several other families on both sides are also hotel keepers. In the column "Employer, Employee, or working on own account" the enumerator seems to be using two codes, Emp and W, and I don't know what his codes mean. He codes hotel workers like waiters and chambermaids as W, which would seem incorrect to me, so I don't know what he means by Emp. Thomas is coded Emp.³
