==History==
Fr. Muller was the grandson of Augustine Muller, a teacher of [[Samuel Hahnemann]], the founder of [[homeopathy]].<ref>{{cite web|title=Mullerian|url=http://www.mullerian.org/fmhmc.html|accessdate=12 March 2012|location=Mangalore}}</ref> He studied in [[Fordham University]] (United States), and trained with eminent doctors in [[Paris]]. He was sent to [[Mangalore]] from [[Venice]], along with eight other Jesuits, to teach French and mathematics at the [[St Aloysius' College (Mangalore)|St. Aloysius' College]].

A trained [[homeopath]], he began treating students under a [[banyan tree]] in the college campus. As his reputation grew, so did the number of patients. In order to accommodate them, he purchased land in [[Kankanady]] and started the Homoeopathic Poor Dispensary. He was recognized for his contribution to society by the [[British Raj]] with the [[Kaisar-i-Hind]] award.

He started treating [[lepers]] in 1883, and founded the St. Joseph’s Leprosy Hospital at [[Kankanady]].<ref>{{cite web|title=FMCI founder|url=http://www.fathermuller.com/page.asp?pagecategory=fmci_founder|accessdate=11 March 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120306220401/http://www.fathermuller.com/page.asp?pagecategory=fmci_founder|archive-date=2012-03-06|url-status=dead}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|title=A museum in memory of Father Muller|url=http://www.hindu.com/2010/11/08/stories/2010110851220200.htm|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20101112024749/http://www.hindu.com/2010/11/08/stories/2010110851220200.htm|url-status=dead|archive-date=November 12, 2010|accessdate=12 March 2012|date=Nov 8, 2010|author=Staff Correspondent|newspaper=[[The Hindu]]|location=Mangalore}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|title=Death Centenary Celebrations of Fr Augustus Muller at Fr.
