Coll., Oxford; B.A. 1867; M.A. 1869.

He published in 1884 Gospel Idylls and Other Sacred Verses; and in 1900 Hymns of Adoration for Church Use. Of his hymns the following were included in the 1904 edition of Hymns Ancient & Modern:--
1. Almighty Father of all things that he. No. 29 of Hymns of Adoration, 1900, as "For the Opening of an Exhibition." Abbreviated and slightly altered in Hymns Ancient & Modern to adapt it as a "General" hymn. It was originally composed for and used at a small industrial Exhibition held in his Parish.
2. Father Unoriginate. "To the Eternal Father," No. 20 in Hymns of Adoration, &c, in 7 stanzas of 6 lines. Abbreviated and partly re-written in Hymns Ancient & Modern, 1904.

These excerpts from Canon Dugmore's work are by no means the best in the book. Com¬pilers of sacred song should give heed to this fact.
