If I'm not mistaken Baileys was on Church St next door to William's,
you used to be able to see the sign on there from the Library steps.
I have a photo somewhere.
Saul's in Black Abbey St also had the system of sending your money
and purchase order on a cable to the cashier.
He got rid of it in the early 1960's.

There were three shops that still had the system in the 1940's

Bailey's and Sauls were two of them.
Seem to remember some of the Co-ops had them as well, Warner St ?.
