Excursion into history :
"J. E. Chrysler. Jeweler. King Street. - Within a comparatively few years the jewelry trade of Canada has been immensely developed, and if from no other standpoint now, than a merely a commercial one, we are prepared to compete with similar establishments in other parts of the world. Among those engaged in the jewelry trade in Brockville Mr. J.C. Chrysler, deserves a notice in a work of this kind. This gentleman, who is a thorough and experienced watchmaker and jeweller, began business on his own account in 1885, and by strict attention to business, and by fair and straight forward dealings he is already in possession of an excellent trade which is constantly increasing. The stock carried by Mr Chrysler is well selected, being of superior quality, and comprises diamonds, watches clocks, jewelry, silverplated ware, opera glasses and optical goods. The entire stock is bought for cash. The best markets are open to Mr. Chrysler, and with what other facilities he enjoys, he can compete most favourably with contemporary rival establishments. A speciality is made of repairing, and in addition Mr Chrysler is engaged in gold and silverplating, and whatever of an industrial character he devotes himself to, he turns out in a workmanlike manner Mr Chrysler is a Canadian, and has lived in Brockville during the past seven years. He is a young and enterprising gentleman, a keen and thorough man of business. He is widely known and generally popular, possessing many estimable qualities."
