7. The Worcester Historical Society (open 2-5, Tues., Wed., Thurs., Fri.,Sat.), 39 Salisbury St., founded in 1875, has in its collection a typewriter invented by Charles Thurber in 1843, workable, but too slow for commercial success. Another relic is a huge iron link, part of the chain that was stretched across the Hudson River at West Point in 1778, thus preventing the British in New York and Albany from joining forces.
