"There, there, wife, she's gone," said Adam, clumsily trying to soothe the mother's anguish, but finding that a tongue long accustomed to expressions of haughty pride and bigotry, could but poorly lend itself to softer words of comfort. "There, there, don't cry, let her go. That scoundrel printer is at the bottom of it all. Somehow the girl does not seem to take after the Goodrich's.
It will thus be seen that the Twelfth Corps was now divided into three portions, Greene's division at the church, Crawford's in the East Wood, and Goodrich's brigade near the north end of the West Wood. Meade had withdrawn the First Corps to the ridge at Poffenberger's, where it had bivouacked the night before, except that Patrick's brigade remained in support of Goodrich.
Perhaps that was because they used to hold most of 'em at his house." "And serve port and cigars, I'm told," Mr. Plimpton put in. "That was an inducement, Wallis, I'll admit," answered Phil. "But there are even greater inducements now." In view of Phil Goodrich's well-known liking for a fight, this was too pointed to admit of a reply, but Mr. Plimpton was spared the attempt by the entrance of.
I said to Senator Scarborough of Indiana soon after Cromwell's candidacy was announced: "What do you think of Goodrich's man?" Scarborough, though new to the Senate then, had shown himself far and away the ablest of the opposition Senators.

When other things are being discussed, they listen, or rather, pretend to listen; in reality, their minds are still on their business, and how they shall contrive to bring it back into the conversation with advantage to themselves. Next day the convention adopted a wishy-washy platform much like Burbank's if anything, weaker. I saw Goodrich's blight upon it. But the victory cost him dear.
A splendid scarecrow for the Wall Street crowd, but difficult to nominate over Goodrich's man Simpson in a convention of practical politicians. In May it was the afternoon of the very day my mutineers got back into the harness Woodruff asked me if I would see a man he had picked up in a delegate-hunting trip into Indiana.
Hawthorne wrote from Boston in the winter of 1836: "I came here trusting to Goodrich's positive promise to pay me forty-five dollars as soon as I arrived; and he has kept promising from one day to another, till I do not see that he means to pay at all.
