By so doing he will pass a most en-joyable day in the very heart of New England, in two of herpleasantest towns, by her most beautiful river, and among heroldest houses, most attractive fields. Upon leaving Hartford, take beside the City Hall the bigcar marked Springfield, East Side. This is the expressroute; the one by the West Side is a very pleasant variant, buta half hour slower. (See page 71 for details of the WestSide trip.) Description: New York to Boston and Portland 29. EAST WINDSOR HILL, CONN. We are now on one of the most beautiful runs in NewEngland, which means, in all the East. We cross the Con-necticut by a granite bridge, the largest of its kind in America. At Church Corners, East Hartford, we turn to the left,passing north thro Main Street, under the great double rowof elm trees planted during the Revolution. We leave theelms about a mile above this point and begin to see the exten-sive tobacco fields for which this section is noted. All alonghere are the farms of the tobacco kings, with their luxuriantlygrowing Connecticut wrapper. Worse fates than being atobacco raiser!
