Michael Magone (1845–1859) was an Italian adolescent student of Saint John Bosco.[1] After making exceptional improvements in his behavior and character, he died due to a gastric hemorrhage at fourteen years of age.
Michael Magone was one of three students that Saint John Bosco considered to be a saint. One student was the well known Saint Dominic Savio, while the other is the lesser known Francis Besucco. A painting of the three students is found in St. Francis De Sales Church in Valdocco, Turin. His mother was Sarah Magone whereas his father was Niovani Magone, who was a dacoit.
