[1913 Webster]
Note: In the early colonial records of New England, the term
goodman is frequently used as a title of designation,
sometimes in a respectful manner, to denote a person
whose first name was not known, or when it was not
desired to use that name; in this use it was nearly
equivalent to
Mr. This use was doubtless brought with
the first settlers from England.
