Federal judicial service

He was confirmed by the United States Senate on May 17, 1938, and received his commission on May 31, 1938. Murphree served in that capacity until his death on September 5, 1945.[1]

gollark: Is that a "well okay but that sounds pointless" eh or a "what?" eh?
gollark: Well, if `debug` provides some information - start/end lines and file, I think - you can do it even *more* hackily and try to load load the relevant lines of the relevant file. Or you can patch `load` to do that somehow.
gollark: Oh, right, OC.
gollark: Functions seem to effectively consist of their code/source (you can get this, sort of, via `string.dump` and maybe `debug`), upvalues (`debug.getupvalue`), environment (`getfenv`?), and random metadata (name, file it's from, whatever else - `debug` can get this, don't know about setting it), so you can kind of swap them with lots of work.
gollark: Functions can probably be swapped, *extremely* hackily via insane debug abuse.
