Showtime at the British

The mayor’s piano, a wooden square grand piano built by James Whiting Vose in 1857. The Symmes Inn Museum took possession of a piece of local history in 2013, thanks to a donation from the Gatineau Valley Historical Society. Vose founded Vose & Sons in 1851 in Boston and built numerous grand, upright and square pianos that ended up in many parts of America, including West Quebec. The piano the museum obtained belonged to Thomas Brigham Prentiss, a former Aylmer councillor and mayor. Originally from Vermont, Prentiss settled in Aylmer in 1854 after living in Chelsea for several years, where he operated a general store and worked for the post office. When Prentiss came to Aylmer, he opened a business on Aylmer’s rue Principale and got involved in municipal politics, first as a councillor in 1862 and later as mayor. Prentiss only held the town hall’s top job from 1878 to 1879, but remained involved in municipal politics for many years. He retired in 1890 and passed away five years later. Prentiss also founded, with other members of the community, the Aylmer Academy, Aylmer’s first high school. Credit: Courtesy
