No, it is definitely Williams.
What they sent me says
On the 17th day of June 1873 the will (then in hand writing)
A of William Cheek Bousfield late of number 12 Eldon Street in the Borough and County of Newcastle Upon Tyne, Gentleman who died on the 24th day of May 1873 at 12 Eldon street aforesaid was proved in the district registry attached to her Majesty's Court of Probate at Newcastle Upon Tyne by the oath of Margaret Rebekah Clara Anderson of Eldon Street aforesaid, spinster the niece of the said deceased and one of the Executors therein named she having been first sworn duly to administer. George Muras and William Eastern, the other executors and two of the residuary legatees in trust named in the said will having renounced the probate and execution thereof.
Then at the bottom of the page is written Further Grant PR June 1910
I also have a form letter from them saying they are unable to provide a copy of the will because this is a Grant of letters of Administration
