Source of the prayer

I wanted to know more about the author of the prayer in the last post — R. Crompton Jones — there’s very little about him online, but he seems to have been in poor health towards the end of his life, around 1885. One of the few references I found was a post I wrote eleven years ago about a service book for Unitarian “lay centers”. The collection of prayers mentioned there must be Jones’s Book of Prayer. W. Copeland Bowie, compiler of Seven Services for Public Worship (London, 1900) points out the three prayers in service 28 as being his, and worth including in that work. Tender and contemplative, they remain worthy representatives of a Unitarian public piety now all but forgotten.
