Many years ago, when we were active white water kayakers, we were regular visitors to Henniker to paddle the class III/IV section of the Contoocook (AKA Tookie). There was, and still is, a fine old fashion pharmacy in the center of Henniker, The Henniker Pharmacy. http://www.hennikerpharmacy.net/
Squeaky wood floors and all.

Rite Aid applied for a site review to build a pharmacy about 1/2 mile away, a death threat to the Henniker Pharmacy. In no time there were signs all over town: "Rite Aid - Wrong Town".

There was a long protracted battle and in the end Rite Aid folded. The Henniker Pharmacy still provides local folk with old fashion service.
