DIE at II ok a Vknkhaiilk Lady.— On
Wednesday morning, tho 11th instant,
Mr*. Elizabeth died at the real*
dunco of bar daughter, Mn. John 11nrpor,
near Contra Halt. Mm. Magna was tho
daughter of William and Sarah Boughner,
and wa* born in Borgon county, New
Jersey, on tho •!tli day of December, A.
D , 17l3, making her ago at the timn of
her death 87 year*, fi month* and 7 day*.
While tho subject ol thi* notice was yet
at an early ago her parent* removed with
her from their lioruo in New Jersey to
Union county, Pa. When about twenty
four year* of ago she WHO united in mar
riage to James Magee, a native of Newry,
Ireland. Seven children were born of
thi* union, three son* and four daughter*,
a* follow*: David, Sarah, Jane, William
8., Agne*, Elizabeth nnd Koubcti M. nf
these seven children, throo survive their
parents, viz: Sarah, wife of George
Beirly, Jane, wife of John Harper, and
our own townsman, Reuben M. Magee.
In tho year 1834, James and Elizabeth
Ma gee removed to Miles township, Cen
tre county, where tho family lived many
years and was highly respected. James
M ag. *e died in tho year lffol, at Robors
burg. Mrs. Magee, after the death of her
husband, continued her residence at ltebors
burg until the year 187' J. At thi* period
of her life, owing to her age, she wn
obliged to quit keeping house, and since
then had made her home alternately with
her son, It. M Magee, and her daughter,
Mrs. Jane Harper, ending her day* at the
home of the latter a* already stated. The
family of her son at this place, had just
completed their arrangements preparatory
to her uual visit to them, but the intirma
lie* of her more than four score years be.
gan to weigh heavily upon her feeble
frame anil death intervened before their
anticipation wa* realized.
The d"*ease of which she died may I"'
called "old age,'' or a general giving away
of the vital |K>wer, together with dropsy,
with which she had been atHietod for sev
eral years. She had been declining in
health and strength during the last year
or tw>—especially through the past win
ter. She became worse on caster Sunday i
April 17th, and continued to fail until her
death. Mrs Magee was an earnest, -in
rera christian woman, having in early life
united herself to the Presbyterian church.
While living in Union county, she and
her husband were members of the Buffalo
X Roads Presbyterian chun b, then under
tho charge of the Kcv. Thomas Hood.
The y were members of that congregation
until their removal to f'entre countv.
There wa- no Presbyterian church in
M ib*s township and she afterward* depend
ed her ccrtifb ah- of church membership
with the Reformed congregation at Refer*,
burg and remained connected therewith
until the day of her death. Throughout
Iter long life she ever maintained an un
faltering trust in the truth* of the Chris
tian religion, always deserving and receiv
ing tho rep*it ami esteem of all who
knew her Her last spoken word* were
invocation* of praise to God, and when
death at last < iaimed his own, calmly and
p-acefuliy she went to her reward in
Heaven.
