P.H. Good, Groceries, Crockery, Glassware, Wines and Liquors, King Street - There are many old established business houses in Berlin that have grown up with the growth of the town, and met with deserved success. Among merchants most prominently connected in this respect is Mr. P.H. Good, whose grocery establishment is located in the Canadian Block on King Street. This gentleman first started the business in 1865, and for the past 21 years has steadily and solidly advanced. The premises occupied, which are large and commodious, suitably and tastefully fitted up for the requirements of the business, are 20x75 feet in dimensions. Here is carried a large and well selected stock of staple and fancy groceries, choice brands of teas and coffees, table delicacies, condiments, hermetically sealed goods, etc.; also a choice and handsome assortment of crockery and glassware, and imported and domestic wines and liquors. Mr. Good gives steady employment to three careful and competent assistants, who are always ready to show goods whether purchases are made or not, although the quality and variety of the goods carried, and the rock bottom prices at which they are sold, are sure to effect a sale. Mr. Good is a native of Canada and is an honorable and enterprising business man, and one who merits well of the community.

Death of Mr. George Good - There passed away on Friday evening at his late home, corner Spring and Queen Streets, one of St. Jacobs' most highly esteemed and pioneer residents, Mr. George Good the well-known village blacksmith. Mr. Good came to this place about 40 years ago and through his upright dealing and genial manner made many warm friends. The funeral, which was held on Monday afternoon, from his late residence to the Evangelical Cemetery, was one of the largest held in this section for a number of years. Rev. W.O. Hehn assisted by Rev. Mr. Schmidt, of Berlin conducted the services. The church was filled, many not being able to gain admittance. The bereaved family, have the heart-felt sympathy of a wide circle of friends. Of the family the following are left to mourn the loss of a king and affectionate father and husband: - a sorrowing widow, a daughter, Miss Elsie, at home; Sylvester and Oscar, St. Jacobs; John Teeswater; and Israel, Regina; also two brothers, Joseph of Didsbury, and Jacob of Berlin. Mr. Good was 62 years of age and had been ill for some time, although only confined to this bed for a few weeks previous to his death. This summer he spent a couple of months in the Northwest, but the change only had the desired effect for a short time. When he felt his old trouble coming on again he hurried home to only survive a couple of months.

Notes:

Blacksmith Until 75

Mr. Good Sr. was a blacksmith in St. Jacobs from the time he was 18 until he retired at 75. He died in 1957 at the age of 83. The business was a family affair started by Mrs. Woodall's great-grandfather Benjamin Good, who was succeeded by her grandfather, George Good. Mr. Sylvester Good then took over and his successor was his son, Mrs. Woodall's brother, Norman. Norman in turn sold the business to John B. Martin, the present proprietor.

35¢ For New Shoe

The exact year the business was started is not on record, but it is thought to have been more than 100 years ago - before Canada was formed. Mrs. Woodall can recall working around the shop as a child during school holidays, and working the hand-operated bellows. The prices charged in those days, as shown in some of the old ledgers which Mrs. Woodall has retained, were 10 cents for re-setting a shoe and 25 to 35 cents for a new shoe. "As children, we couldn't always understand why father couldn't give us everything we wanted, when we wanted it," commented Mrs. Woodall on these prices. "When we grew older, we understood better." Mr. Sylvester Good was only away from St. Jacobs once in his 83 years and that was when he went on a harvest excursion. Mrs. Woodall has preserved a number of papers concerning this historic family, some of which she has placed in the custody of the museum at Doon.

"Shoe Cost 35¢ In Early Days Of St. Jacobs Blacksmith Shop" in the Elmira Fair Dealer, August 22, 1962, pg 21. [Interview of Mrs. Jack Woodall, whose father was the late Sylvester Good.], submitted by Marion Roes 2011

Notes:

Sad Death - On Sunday morning the late Israel Good passed away at the home of his father-in-law, Mr. Jacob b. Keller, Yonge street. The deceased was a comparatively young man being only 32 years of age. Some years ago he went west and being a quiet, sober and industrious young man he soon worked himself up, being a plumber by trade. Before long he was taken in as partner in a large plumbing firm, in Regina. A few years ago, he returned home for a couple months' vacation, when he was united in marriage to Miss (Bertha) Keller, only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Keller of this town. This year he again took advantage of the Christmas Eastern Excursions to visit his mother and friends, little thinking that he would not return. His wife and daughter had come down a month previous. A couple of months ago he was taken suddenly ill and an operation was performed from which he never recovered, although everything that doctors and kind friends could do was done to try and save his life. Besides a sorrowing widow and young daughter, he is survived by his mother Mrs. George Good, one sister, Elsie at home, three brothers, Sylvester and Oscar, of St. Jacobs, and John, of Teeswater, who mourn the loss of a kind and affectionate husband, father, son and brother. They have the heartfelt sympathy of a large circle of friends in their sad bereavement. The funeral will take place Thursday afternoon from the home of J. B. Keller.
