It should be Douglas Street" instead of "D'Aguilar Street.” Its origin is this. In the good old days Mr. Douglas, the founder of Messrs. Douglas Lap. raik & Co., established the Erat watchmaker's shop in the colony in the very office new occu pied by Mesare Gilman & Co., and ever since that time the street has been called "Douglas, street.
