Masthead from 12–14 May 1715

The Post Man was an English newspaper published between 1695 and 1730.[1] It was edited by Jean de Fonvive, a Huguenot refugee.[2] It appeared three times a week and established such a reputation that the soldier, Duke of Marlborough, insisted that his military dispatches should only appear in its pages.[3]

It was published in London.[4]
