{{Use British English|date=January 2012}}{{Use dmy dates|date=January 2012}}{{Portal|Anglicanism}} The Rt Rev Thomas Henry Sprott,[1] MA, DD, OBE[2] (26 September 1856 – 25 July 1942) was an eminent[3] Anglican priest in the first half of the 20th century.

Life

Born on 26 September 1856 at Dromore, County Down,[4] he was educated at Trinity College, Dublin[5] and ordained in 1879.[6] Following curacies at Holy Trinity, Kingston upon Hull[7] and St John the Evangelist, Waterloo Road,[8] he became Minister of St Barnabas’, Mount Eden, Auckland[9] in 1886.

From 1892 until 1911 Sprott was Vicar of St Paul’s Pro-Cathedral, Wellington[10] when he was elevated to the Episcopate as the 4th Bishop of Wellington, a post he held for 25 years.[11] Described as a “a profound divine who for years tried to fathom the deeps of modern reasoning",[12] he died on 25 July 1942.[13] His wife[14] Edith survived him and died in 1945, but his son (who was awarded the Military Cross in 1917)[15] died on active service with the Norfolk Regiment in March 1918.[16]

Legacy

Sprott House, a residential home for the elderly in Wellington, New Zealand, is named for him.
