Tolkien's praise for Fr Morgan as a good priest whose memory outweighs the bad example he has known some priests to give is all the sadder given that one of Tolkien's sons who became a priest has been credibly accused of abuse. (He is now dead and was never tried because he had dementia when the first accusation became public. The Archdiocese of Birmingham had a bad record in handling these matters.)
