MURPHY, -, Father (Irish), is named in an Italian letter dated Dublin, November 22, 1672, and written by the martyr, the Archbishop Oliver Plunket, Primate of Ireland, to the Father General Oliva, in which, after expressing his affectionate regard for the Society, and informing him of the meritorious labours of Fathers Rice and Ignatius Brown at Drogheda, he speaks of Father Murphy as a good theologian, an excellent religious, a man of great talent, and a distinguished preacher in the Irish language.
