Biography
William Murdoch (24 February 1823 - 4 May 1887) was a Scottish-Canadian poet.Born in Paisley, Renfrewshire, Scotland, Murdoch migrated to Canada in 1854, aged 31. The following year, he was appointed manager of the gasworks on Partridge Island in 1855. He contributed to the Saint John Morning News from 1865, and published Poems and Songs by William Murdoch (1860) and Discursory Ruminations: A Fireside Drama (1876).
Also worth noting it is widely rumored that Murdoch had supposedly written a short, unpublished poem known as The Metal Glen. The work gained its notoriety on the internet after it was posted to a discussion thread of an RPG adventure game hosted on 4chan's /tg/ board, to which the poem itself bore a strong resemblance to. (The game also references a certain W. Murdoch at one point) It was later revealed that the poem was actually written by the game's creator and not Murdoch.
Murdoch died in Saint. John, New Brunswick, Canada. ..
