The following article is from the Boston Post of recent date. Rev. Father Murrhy. referred to, is a cousin of Mr. James Pendergast of Kensinsion. and a son of the late Mr. P. 0. Murphy of Ernerald. P. E. 1., who passed away last 11 in Sydney. His mother is the chili: Katherine Corniiclr of Sydney and Kenslngton.

The compoiuid of the scnrboro Fathers stood with a quiet patience in the great afternoon heat of south-eastern China, and inside of the well-known mission, situated near Kinwah on the main railroad line running between shanghai and Kingsl province, s 3'!-year-o'd priest, with a ruddy complexion. thick curly black hair and a slight- ly bent nose that was broken in a motorcycle accident, was perform- his multiplicity of duties.

and it was when he swerved his

read one day to avoid hitting a small child that he suffered the nose fracture. But it didn't bother him very much. lle kept going. There was the church, the school and the dispensary to occupy his time from early tiil late.

8. 1940, he was startled by the noise of 2000 Communist troops swarming up to the main gate with their bsyonets fixed. Those Red Smdlera, all Chinese, were Quits young being 14 to la years old. They had come looting and plunderiing down from the north, part of the horde of their leader, Mao Tze Tung who had his picture taken on the right hand of Josef Stalin a few weeks ago. "Are you afraid?" one of their number asked the priest.

"Nov. "Why not?" Because I have done no wrong. ..lamheretcdozoodifIcan. "Well, don't be afraid at all- weke here to protect you." whereupon they soon appropri- ated the mission Jeep, kept it for 10 days, and subsequently forbade the priests to use the ve icie. And as far as Father Murphy ow, it is on still blocks in Kinwsh.

When he had gone out to China in me. he was a young lnissioner, full of high hopes and with a bum- ing real to do good, and who weighed a robust 190.

He went back to the East, of course, when the war-World War 11- was over, his mind pretty much at ease. Father Murphy had for- given-. forgotten much-even, al- most, the time Jsp soldiers had him lined up against a wall and were planning to bayonet him. They did kill some of the other priests.

And here he is again. He had trouble getting a visa, and he had to run a blockade. but he made it -as did Angus ward, the Ameri- can consul at Pclping who was sub- mitted to all sorts of brutaiities by the conquering communists.

The priest said that Chinese com- munists maintain a far-flung es- pionsge system and in all other ways operate an absolute police state, with conditions being much worse in the interior of the coun- try thsn they are in the coastal cities.

But even in the big cities, he ex- pisincd, heavy taxes. coniiscatory taxes, are bringing both domestic and foreign business houses to their knees.
