In 1852-3 he was stationed at Springfield. He died at Bloomington, Ill., Mar. 23,1854. From orphanage and neglected wickedness, and after majority by the transforming power of grace and strenuous effort, Mr. Magee became in fourteen years one of the foremost ministers of his Conference. His powerful frame, decided talents, and indomitable energy enabled him to labor mightily for God. — Minutes of Conferences, v. 476.
