| TEXT | Prominent among the larger dealers in fine second-hand modern and antique furniture in this section of the metropolis is the house of Mr. Edgar Williams, No. 74 University Place, which was established by that progressive dealer in 1880. The premises occupied are very commodious, and comprise the first floor and basement at the address above named, which are completely stocked with a full assortment of modern and antique second-hand furniture, parlor and chamber suites, carpets, mirrors, bronzes, bric-a-brac, etc., procured at private and public sales, which from various causes are constantly taking place in some of the most elegant residences of large cities. The house also manufactures to order all varieties of chairs, dining-room and library furniture of the best quality only. For beauty of design, finish and workmanship these goods are unequalled by thoss of any other contemporary concern in the city. This house has always enjoyed the reputation as being one of the cheapest and most reliable in New York, and this excellent chara cter and name will be carefully guarded and maintained by Mr. Williams, who will leave nothing undone to meet the demands of his patrons with the best class of goods at the very lowest prices. Woven wire mattresses and spring beds are also to be found here of acknowledged merit and excellence, and upholstery in all its branches forms a special feature of the business. Mr. Williams buys the finest lines of secondhand furniture from both large and small houses, giving always full market priges, thereby saving patrons the trouble and annoyance of an auction sale, and very often it has been found that his offer was larger in amount than the goods realized under the hammer. It may be further said that no house possesses better facilities for procuring artistic and first-class second-hand furniture thau the one under review, it being one of the oldest established to this city, and one well known by our old families. Personally, Mr. Williams is highly esteemed by the community as an honorable business man and upright private citizen, and justly merits the success achieved by his enterprise and persoverance. |
