Death of a father	Evan J MAGEE about 1836 Westville, Simpson Co, MS Note: Evans death was chronicled many years later in the Westville News Dated 27 October 1898, which desc… Evans death was chronicled many years later in the Westville News Dated 27 October 1898, which described the incident as follows: .....\"For many years there were from two to five retail liquor saloons in Westville, around and about which many disturbances occurred, such as fistcuffs and affrays, with occasionally a shooting or cutting affair. One night, some 51 or 52 years ago, a row took place in one that stood on the corner where Drummond's store now stands. Evan Magee (father of Thomas and W.J. deceased) was cut with a knife from the effects of which he died. A man by the name of Revels was indicted for the murder, and when the case came up for trial, he applied for a change of venue and his case was moved to Smith Co., where he was convicted of manslaughter, this having occurred before there was a penitentiary in the state. He was branded for the crime. After Magee's death, Mr. Miles, father of S.J. Miles of Harrisville, married his widow Naomi Magee.\"
