post-obit

I wonder how long an interval there was between the two; it would be a pretty calculation for a post-obit.

From The Perpetual Curate by Mrs. (Margaret) Oliphant

‘I should have imputed these debts to mere heedless extravagance, like other people’s—like my own, if you please—save for your own words, and for finding you capable of such treachery as borrowing on a post-obit.’

From Hopes and Fears or, scenes from the life of a spinster by Charlotte Mary Yonge

My first post-obit was cashed by his worthy father.

From Sir Jasper Carew His Life and Experience by Charles James Lever

Here, wealthy misers to inter,   We've shrouds of neat post-obit paper; While, for their heirs, we've _quick_silver,   That, fast as they can wish, will caper.

From The Complete Poems of Sir Thomas Moore Collected by Himself with Explanatory Notes by William Michael Rossetti

It has long been my intention to leave behind me my own Memoirs, as a post-obit for my family—a wise intention no doubt, and one which it is not very prudent to procrastinate.
