This is a photograph of Fr. Murphy celebrating a marriage ceremony at the church at Pet Tsu Tsai [now Beitouzhai]. Rev. Murphy was born in Montreal, Canada. He joined Maryknoll in 1919 and was ordained in 1927. He was assigned first to Kaying, returning to the U.S. for decennial leaves in 1937 and 1947. Like many others he was forced to leave China in 1951, later working in Taiwan.
