From Bouvier's Law Dictionary, Revised 6th Ed (1856) [bouvier]:

  GOODS, property. For some purposes this term includes money, valuable 
  securities, and other mere personal effects. The term. goods and chattels, 
  includes not only personal property in possession, but also choses in 
  action. 12 Co. 1; 1 Atk. 182. The term chattels is more comprehensive than 
  that of goods, and will include all animate as well as inanimate property, 
  and also a chattel real, as a lease for years of house or land. Co. Litt. 
  118; 1 Russ. Rep. 376. The word goods simply and without qualification, will 
  pass the whole personal estate when used in a will, including even stocks in 
  the funds. But in general it will be limited by the context of the will. 
  Vide 2 Supp. to Ves. jr. 289; 1 Chit. Pr. 89, 90; 1. Ves. jr. 63; Hamm. on 
  Parties, 182; 3 Ves. 212; 1 Yeates, 101; 2 Dall. 142; Ayl. Pand. 296; Wesk. 
  Ins. 260; 1 Rop. on Leg. 189; 1 Bro. C. C. 128; Sugd. Vend. 493, 497; and 
  the articles Biens; Chattels; Furniture. 
       2. Goods are said to be of different kinds, as adventitious, such as 
  are given or arise otherwise than by succession; dotal goods, or those which 
  accrue from a dowry, or marriage portion; vacant goods, those which are 
  abandoned or left at large.
