71. Young Men’s Institute Library

You will find this library in New Haven. It is one of the oldest private libraries, and was for many years, one of New Haven’s best kept secrets.
The library was founded in 1826 by a small group of mechanics, and it remained a private library for young men only.
An interesting point is that the library does not catalogue the books by the Dewey system; rather it uses a card and organizational system which was invented by William Borden.
The system means that fiction is categorized by the subject. There is only one other place in the world where this was used, namely the Indian State of Baroda, which Bordon introduced to the system.
If you want to visit the library, you will need to ring the buzzer, announce your name, and wait for the librarian to admit you.

72. Fort Trumbull State Park

You will find the park in New London. The park covers things like the American Revolution to the Cold War. You can see earthworks and the granite fort.
The museum is worth spending time in, although it is quite small. It is very informative. There is a visitor’s center where you can get something to eat.
If you enjoy fishing, you may decide to spend some time fishing off the pier at the side of the fort. This is just a great day out, in a very pleasant area.

73. The Occult Museum

This museum was founded by the Warren family, and you will find it in Monroe. It contains hundreds of artefacts from the world’s best paranormal investigators.
The Warren family was very popular lecturers, when they were not out doing stuff like exorcising demons from people!
Look for the collection of cursed dolls, and the collection of things taken from a vampire’s coffin.
This is not a place to take a child of any age!

74. Statue of Rover the dog

If you are an animal lover, then you should see this. It is in Hartford. It is a tribute to the dog who waited outside a hospital for his owner to return to him.
Legend has it that a man admitted himself to hospital after a heart attack. He told the dog to ‘stay’, just outside the hospital as he thought he would be out shortly. The man passed away, but the dog stayed as he had been told.
No matter how the staff tried to bribe the dog, he refused to move.
A second version tells of the man recovering and going home with his dog.
Either way, Hertford Hospital felt that it deserved a statue of its own, and Rover has been immortalized.

75. Grave of Sarah Winchester

Sarah Winchester felt that the family of Winchester was cursed, and she sought advice from a medium as to what to do about it. The psychic told her to build a house and never stop the construction.
So, Sarah set out to build her house. It started off with just 8 rooms, but by the time she died it had been extended to a 160-room mansion.
You may take the guided tour of the house, or go around by yourself. You may try and find her grave as it is in the family plot with her husband and daughter, in Evergreen Cemetery.
