Goodrich is known for having the first printed citation of the epigram: "Have a place for every thing, and keep every thing in its proper place. The phrase was published in an article called "Neatness" which Goodrich published in The Ohio Repository (Canton, Ohio), in December 1827.
The idea that everything should have a place, and that everything should be returned to this place subsequently appeared in later texts:
In Masterman Ready, or the Wreck of the Pacific, in 1842, Frederick Marryat wrote, "In a well-conducted man-of-war every thing is in its place, and there is a place for every thing."
lieutenant appears also in a book printed in 1857 by Doctorate. Appleton & Company of New York with the same title: A Place for Everything and Everything In Its Place".
