Rev. Homer Magee, 80, died at the home of J. E. Beaver on Kelly Creek last Thursday, suffering from pneumonia and complications. Interment was in the Hunt Cemetery under the direction of Smith Funeral Home, with Rev. W. M. Whatley, pastor of the Hunt Baptist Church, officiating. He was a native of Mississippi, and had never married. He had lived in the Ingram and Hunt community for a number of years, and was an itinerant preacher and school teacher, having held services at Grape Creek, Hunt and Ingram when his health would permit. He was an educated man, and years ago he wrote a great deal, poetry as well as Biblical stories and fiction. In his declining years he has made his home with the Virgil Beaver family, and when Mr. Beaver became seriously ill, the aged man was taken to the J. E. Beaver home where he was cared for during his last illness.
So far as is known the only survivor is a sister who lives in West Texas.
