Rogers, daughter of Robert Rogers of Cass (Bartow) county. Bro. Murphy joined the Baptist Church at Flint River (Jonesboro) in the year 1840, and was at the time of his death an orderly member of the Baptist Church at Fayetteville. Bro. M. was a good man, husband, indulgent parent, humane master, kind neighbor and useful member of the church. He has left an amiable wife and interesting family to mourn his death; but they mourn not as those who have no hope. In the midst of their sad bereavement they are comforted by the hope that his departed spirit has gone to that "rest that remaineth for the people of God," where after life's toil is over, they hope to meet again.
