Williams, Hanwell, Pharmaceutical Chemist and Druggist, Mawhera Quay, Greymouth. P.O. Box 51; Telephone, 118; Bankers. Union Bank of Australia, Limited. Mr. Williams established his business in Greymouth in the year 1865, on Richmond Quay, and thus opened the first chemist's shop in the Grey district. About five years later, he bought out Mr. Ewan Prosser, of Mawhera Quay, and it is on this site that the business is still conducted. The pharmacy is considered one of the most up-to-date in the colonies, and is completely stocked with toilet requisites, perfumery, genuine patent medicines, pure drugs, and chemicals. A feature of this establishment is the dispensing of physicians' prescriptions, and family recipes, in which the purest drugs are used. All prescriptions are compound ed by thoroughly qualified dispensers. On the 1st of February, 1905, Mr Williams disposed of his business to his two sons, Charles Philip Williams and Lilly Joseph Williams, who are both qualified chemists, and have had considerable experience at the drug business. They enjoy the confidence of the public, and are recognised as first class chemists.
