a Presbyterian minister, was born in Brooklyn, N. Y., Sept. 2, 1835. He received careful parental training, enjoyed all the advantages of the academies of New England, and graduated at the New York Free Academy. He studied theology in the Union Seminary, New York, and subsequently in the Princeton Seminary, N. J., where he graduated in 1858, and was licensed and ordained over the Church in Warrensburgh, N. Y., Jan. 10, 1860: this was his only charge, for he died Nov. 12, 1861. Mr. Post died in the very midst of his active work; still his short ministry gave full proof of his calling, and many souls were added to the Church. See Wilson, Presb. Hist. Almanac, 1863, p. 308.
