councillor john paxton started it when he moved to goodwood in 1972 to the house west of the esso garage property then olaf foster continued after he bought the garage for claude watson and neither one of them realized that by flying a british flag they were reversing a tradition which had begun in 1912 and continued for over 30 years this story really begins in the fall of 1911 when ontario went conservative and almost singlehandedly with a little help from quebec defeated the laurier government including the minister of labour w l mackenzie king the issues had again been condensed to loyalty to the british empire or reciprocity with the us and annexation for sure the aftermath meant a changing of postmasters because the days of open political patronage were not yet over liberal storekeeper crosby had been postmaster for 5 years and he was wellliked john s todd conservative and prominent businessman he ran the goodwood elevator was appointed and he was not so wellliked especially after he got the appointment after all he didnt need the job and crosby had been talking of quitting storekeeping and going into the coal business with his brother in toronto the great post office war started when john s moved the post office from crosbys fine brick store on the east side of the tracks to a small unused store west of the tracks the presentpo andstartedselling groceries also in opposition to crosby many people boycotted the new post office by asking their friends to address their mail in care of mr crosby some got together to bring in a car of feed a car of salt and a car of coal so that they wouldnt have to deal with john s the writer of the goodwood news promoted the activities of rival stock buyers in his weekly column a meeting was held in the township hall with the postal authorities to air complaints against the new postmaster to see if there were grounds to have him ousted then in june of 1912 when many people in goodwood and most communities in those days flew a union jack in honour of the kings birthday postmaster john s todd forgot in fact nobody on the west side of the tracks had raised a flag so from that day people started calling it the american side of town as for the great post office war it petered out gradually john s hired joe henderson to repair and install the post office facilities in the store west of the victoria hotel john paxtons first goodwood house and hired his nephew george todd to look after the books bert crosby gave up storekeeping and moved to toronto and john s remained as postmaster until his death in 1918 hed moved the post office to crosbys store that year and his daughter jessie continued in the position until 1936 when charlie watson got the job did you ever live near goodwood perhaps you know some
