ie wish that we possessed the power to J
y' pay a worthy tribute to our departed
ie! friend, but find words inadequate to
h express our feelings. He was known
personally to practically every read-j
i, er of The Chronicle and all of them
t. can testify to his high Christian charif
acter, his devotion to the cause which
h he championed and to his worth as a
>- citizen. The following from the Co-!
a lumbia State was written by his pasa
tor, the Rev. Ben Allen, and covers
fully the life of this good man:
E "The Rev. Mike McGee is dead..d
The end came to him peacefully yes-|
s terday afternoon. By virtue of his i
d age, Relationships and ministry, many, ]
i- are sad over his death. Had he lived' j
g to February 11, next, he would have j
been 81 years old. Mr. McGee lvd <
lived an active life until a few years <
e ago, when his health declined, and
n j probably knew more people personalf
ly than any other man in Anderson (<
. bounty. His memory was great and | i
e he could always place names and | i
^ faces, thus enhancing his deserved !
irj popularity. j 1
b At the outbreak of the War Be-ji
Y tween the Sections Mr. McGee enlist-, i
| ed, being a member of the famous i
. Orr's Regiment, and served through-J e
J out the war. He was wounded sev- t
? erely during a strenuous campaign \
i and out of service for a time, butj
J with this exception he was actively f
fj engaged during the entire war. He I
.'made a splendid soldier, obedient to c
i! orders and brave as a lion. At the J
j close of the war he returned to his g
j native community in Anderson Coun-' a
ty.
Four years later, in 1869, Mr. Mc-|t
j 'ec was ordained to the ministry of v
j th? Baptist Church. For 45 years he I
i was active in the services of his 5
. church. During his long ministry he a
served sixteen different churches in C
Anderson and Abbeville Counties. He o
was an earnest preacher and popular v
with his congregations. For the paat p

few years he has had no active pastorate
on account of his health, but
so long as he was able he was faith-'
ful in hi-: ntcendance and service of:
|
his church. He probably married
more couples and conducted more
funerals than any other preacher in
this county. He served the Saluda
Baptist Association for a long time
as clerk, later being promoted to
moderator of the body, in which ca-,
pacity he continued to serve his de-'
nomination until a few years ago. He j
was a pious man and to know him'
was to love him.
Mr. McGee was noted for his gen-!
erosity and humility. He talked but'
little
about what he had done, leav-j
ing his record as made on high. Butj
it is'known that he cared for several j
v~han children, taking them to his,
- wu home and acting as father to

Mr. McGee died from some cancer-1
jus affection from which he had suf-|
'ered for several years. During his
iffliction he made no complaint, but.
jore patiently his suffering, and was
econciled to his condition. He car-'
