Joel Seth Post was born in Wayne county, New York, April 27, 1817. When 12 jesrs of age he removed with hia father to Michigan territory ui.d remained there 11 years. He came to Decatur in 1839 aud began study law during the following ear iu the office of Charles Emerson. jeir later he was admitted to the bar. When the Mexican war broke out he enlisted aud served under Col.

E. D. Baker. He was made quartermaster the rank of captain. He served during two sessions as the representative of this district iu the state senate, his term beginning in 1856.

Af-ttr retiring from the senate he was in the prime of life, and his law practice became very large. He was success ful in jury trials, and was employed very many criminal cases. He was man of deep and tender feeling, heartily sympathizing with the unfortunate, and able always to make others feel as he felt himself. During later years he had retired from practice nearly altogether. Although a very staunch democrat he was heartily in favor of the war for the support of the union.

For several years he had been a pronounced prohibitionist and his exhortations were of great value to the anti-license party in the early days of its existence and in its time of strength. His was a kind and emotional disposition which the infirmities of age could not rob of its natural sunshine. He leaves two living children Mrs. Helen Post, of Angelica, N. and Bunn Post, of Decatur.
