Hensall doctor has delivered 1.400 babies
Dr. ' John Goddard of
Hensall was always a good
listener. As a result, he
dispensed comforting words
as often as prescriptions
during the 30 -year practice
that ended in March:
In course of that time he
helped bring .1,400 babies into
the world. On September 18
many of them came with
their own children to a party
in his honour at the Pineridge
Chalet.
Dr. Goddard was born in
Stettler, Alberta. He received
his degree in medicine from
the University of Alberta at
Edmonton in 1938, then in-
terned at Hamilton. While
there he met and married a
nurse from Palmerston,
named Helen Meston.
He joined the Royal
Canadian Air _Force in .1940
and served five years, nine
months and six days.
"Everybody knows when
they finished", he said. Most
of the time was spent in
Calgary.

Briefly, after the war, he
pr: tc•t ised as a pa r•t nc r of 1)r.
1h'Ilia m Sprout of Sea forth. 1n
1945 he came to Hensall,
bought t114/1acDonnell house
and converted,its dining room
into an office.
It was the kind of practice
that has all but disappeared.
,He was on call virtually 24
hours a day.
"They used to call at all
hours", said his:wife,, "They
always knew he'd go if they
needed ham:"
Fora time he worked at the
Seaforth, Clinton and Exeter
hospitals `simultaneously,
then at Clinton and Exeter,
finally just aGFxeter,
When asked what he had
thought about the move to
close various ' hospitals, he
said, "When the survey was
made 10 years ago of the role
of hospitals in Huron County,
I think it would have been
reasonable to build a big
central hospital in Clinton.
Instead, first they decided to
close it, then left it open.
There had been no hospital,
at Fxeter 30 years ago. "A lot
of babies were born at home
or at little, nursing homes
around the country." Hensall
had one; Zurich', two.
Till about 1966 he delivered
50 babies a year; since then,
only about 30. "The birth rate
dropped in 1966 and didn't
come up again", he said. "In
another three or four years it
will hit the high schools, then
they will drop away .down (in
enrolment)."
Ile sometimes went . by
tr-actor to make rural calls in
winter. He' had even gone,
years ago, with a team, of
horses and sled across the
fields. His car got stuck in
snowdrifts on township roads
so often one winter that the
owner of the village's only
tow -truck gave him the 'key
for it and told him to drive it
when he had to go out at
night.
The night calls decreased,
then stopped. The doctor was
growing older. Times were
changing, too.
"It'll soon come to the stage
where there won't be any
house calls at ail", he
predicted. "There's going to
be a lot less listening to
people. With health in-
surance, you have to see so
many a day to r'ilake a living.
There'll be less individual
care."
That won't be his kind of
practice. "I used to just work
all the time", he Said. "I
didn't mind doing it."
"You'd do it again, too!"
said his wife.
If he had any regret, it was
that he had never been able to
spepd much time with. his
children when they were
growing up. He gave his wife
all the credit for their up-
bringing.
Beth, now Mrs. Douglas
Jamieson, lives in Exeter and
has two children, Scott, 12,
and Heather, 8. Peggy makes
her home in Toronto with her
husband, Dennis, and son,
Jeff, age 14. John is com-
pleting a doctorate in
chemistry at the University
of Toronto. Joan is at home
just now.
The leisure of retirement
has been no problem for -their
father so far. He's been
catching up on some of the
repair jobs around the house
and the family cottage near
St. Joseph.
There's time to .,become
acquainted with grand-
children, to listen to the
classical music he loves and
read books. He may take up
photography, the hobby he
dropped long ago. Some day,
maybe, he and his wife may
revisit England or go to
Greece.
He puffed on his pipe and
said, "It's not so hard to quit
either."
