[edit]I expanded the article. Murphy was abbot for more than twenty years. He was the first native Oregonian to become a Catholic priest. He was leader of the college and seminary for years. Abbots and bishops are usually automaticall considered notable, but in this case all the more because of the fire of 1926 and the monastery's transition under Murphy into an "American" (and not Swiss/German) monastery. -- Melchior2006 (talk) 10:22, 31 January 2024 (UTC)
