Is "Malta" here the country or a town in New York (state)? Never heard of a town named Malta before.

I've lived 22 of my 30 years in New York, but only ventured north of West Point twice in my life (once to Cooperstown, and years later through upstate to Montreal).

My grandmother, who somewhat resembled Aunt Kate always called potato chips "Saratoga chips". Now I know why.
