In reply to:NicholasW: Goods inward, surely?... 'good inwards' looks like a typing mistake
He later used the phrase send all good & correspondence to that address.Speaking as one gifted in the black art of making typos, I know how easy it is to repeatedly make the same error. I have to agree with Nicholas that "good" is almost certainly meant to be "goods", in both instances. Was the correspondence handwritten? If not, I would assume that the author simply failed to notice the missing "s" - perhaps relying on a spell-checker, which would let "good" pass unchallenged.
