The Inn was called a Halfway House because it was approximately halfway between Hartford and Boston. The inn was notable because both George Washington and the Marquis de Lafayette spent time there. Washington once wrote in his journal that he apparently did not enjoy a breakfast that he had at the inn. Once, Washington's coach left the inn without him, but he was able to overtake it on foot. Also notably, Lafayette left his masonic apron at the Inn, and it was passed down through the Jacobs family. (en)
