Almost totally forgotten today, his books of verse include "Rondeaux of Boyhood" (1923), limited to 300 copies, and "From a Lover's Garden: More Rondeaux and Other Verses of Boyhood" (1924), limited to 225 copies. [ [http://www.glbtq.com/literature/uranian_poets,2.html Uranian Poetry] on glbtq.com.] The former was written under the pseudoynm A. Newman. The latter contained an introduction by fellow Uranian John Gambril Nicholson. Murray also wrote a bibliography of Austin Dobson, published in 1900. Murray worked as a printer, bookseller and publisher in Brompton Road, London [Nelson, James G. "Publisher to the Decadents: Leonard Smithers in the Careers of Beardsley, Wilde, Dowson". Penn State Press, 2000.] He printed the works of other Uranians, including John Leslie Barford.
