He was the founder of the Murphy Varnish Company in Newark New Jersey.Born in Jersey City New Jersey he was attending Newark Academy when the American Civil War started. In July 1862 he enlisted in the Union Army despite being only 16 years old and was mustered in as a Private in Company A 13th New Jersey Volunteer Infantry on July 19 1862.

His regiment fought in the Battles of Antietam Chancellorsvile Gettysburg the Atlanta Campaign the "March to the Sea" and Bentonville. He was honorably mustered out of service on June 8 1865.

He ran for Governor of New Jersey in 1901 and defeated his Democratic opponent James M. Seymour by a vote of 183 814 to 166 681. His 1902 1905 gubernatorial administration was a kind of Square Deal in miniature as he implemented many Progressive policies such as improved child labor laws the abolition of the fee system that existed in state and county offices and the establishment of New Jersey's first state primary laws. He was prohibited by the then-current provision of the New Jersey State Constitution from succeeding himself so he yielded the Governorship at the end of his term to Edward C. Stokes. From 1883 to 1886 he was a member of the Common Council of Newark and was at one time president of the Council. He was elected to the New Jersey General Assembly in 1885; while in office as parks commissioner he laid out and completed the parks of Essex County; from March 24 1886 to 1889 he was a trustee for the Reform School for Boys. President McKinley appointed him one of the commissioners to the Paris Universal Exposition in 1900. He held official positions in numerous financial institutions social and civic bodies. After leaving office he remained involved in New Jersey Republican Party affairs for the rest of his life. He was a delegate to the Republican National Convention five times and at the 1908 Republican National Convention he was a candidate for the vice presidential nomination to serve as running mate to William Howard Taft that eventually went to New York Representative James S. Sherman. He died in Palm Beach Florida at age 74 and was buried in Mount Pleasant Cemetery Newark." Phoenix Publishing hardcover
