The stained glass window commemorates Canon William Hopcraft who was a Reverend of the church from 1895 to 1908.

In June 1895, Canon Slaney-Poole resigned and the Reverend William Hopcraft of Port Augusta was appointed and inducted on September 6. Much of Hopcraft’s incumbency was occupied by the need to reduce the debt incurred by the building program. Canon Hopcraft died on June 9, 1908 and the choir vestries were erected on the west side of the Parish Hall and altar rails were placed in the chancel.
