Letters to Fr James Murphy SJ on the granting of faculties

Letters to the Fr James Murphy SJ, Rector of Tullabeg from Matthew Gaffney, Bishop of Meath, concerning issues such as the granting of ordinary faculties and visits to Tullabeg. In one letter Bishop Gaffney writes, ‘I hope you are not extinguished after all the light you shed on us. You strongly established your own fame, but you literally elevated your order, high as had been its station’ (4 August 1899).

Gaffney; Matthew (1839-1909); Roman Catholic Bishop of Meath
