Post; William Luther Post, MD/Rev; and Alverus Byron Post, Sr. 2nd marriage ~ Pansy Quillen stepson ~ Walter Quillen _________________________ 2/14/2026 ~ The following is a Valentine's Day Poem written by Alverus Byron Post, Sr., to Angeline Tufts on February 14, 1869, when they were 22 and 15, respectively; they married two years later. The unsigned poem was discovered and transcribed by me in December 2025 (157 years later). It was fragile, torn in four pieces and protected inside a glass test tube stored in a random box of my father's belongings. ~ postkrispykritters Around the table I now will bend To write the epistle I'm about to send The fourteenth of February it seems to be A day of pleasure and a day of glee But the question now I'm about to shove Is a question of beauty and a question of love For my heart is aching to tell you the truth For I've loved you my darling ever since my youth I'm thinking my dear of those beautiful eyes What beauty and splendor far exceeds the skyes And those beautiful lips I love so to kiss For there dear is the lovers bliss And to talk of the life which I expect to see Is a joy and delight my love to me Though you may oftimes get angry and scold Yet I love you my darling for better than gold The story I've promised to tell Angeline You see is told in the proceeding lines And the mistake which you perhaps will see Excuse for a bungler is the author who ever he be February 14th 1869 in haste _________________________ NOTES: 10/19/2015 ~ Thank you, "Rose" (contributor #47934624), for trying to fulfill my photo request. Though Angeline was believed to have been buried here, Rose states that the cemetery has no record of her burial at Memorial Park or Oak Hill Cemetery. She checked under both of Angeline's married names, as well as her maiden name.
