Person Name: Anon. Author of "The cheerful day comes back from God" in The Sunday School Hymnary In some hymnals, the editors noted that a hymn's author is unknown to them, and so this artificial "person" entry is used to reflect that fact. Obviously, the hymns attributed to "Author Unknown" "Unknown" or "Anonymous" could have been written by many people over a span of many centuries.

He edition the Home Book for Children of all ages, 1854, which passed through several eds. Two hymns are associated with his name:—
1. The cheerful day comes back from God. [Morning.] 1854, as above, p. 80, as "Morning Hymn for a Christian child," given without name of author.
2. The Father's house is very large. [Eternal Life.] This is in E. Hodder's New Sunday School Hymn Book, 1863, marked as by "P.," and in the S. S. Hymnary, 1905, as by “J. Gage Pigg."
We are unable to determine whether either is really by Mr. Pigg.
