Historical elements:
This house was owned by lawyer James O’Halloran, Cowansville’s first mayor. Deputy of the Brome-Missisquoi county in 1861, he was re-elected by acclamation in 1863. M. O’Halloran was a much appreciated speaker who was averse to Confederation. This house had the chance to welcome Mr. M.B. Fisher, member of Parliament during one of Mr. Duplessis’s terms of office.
