ST. THOMAS (Williams vs. Ashworth, and Handel)

I'm looking at the various hymns about St. Thomas and hymn tunes named for him (and the texts used with them) and I discovered that there are (now, were) two instances listed as ST. THOMAS (Williams) that are C.M. texts, whereas that is pretty much the epitome of a Short Meter tune. Both are in BoP1918 (#23 and #24 if I recall correctly). I removed the authority links, as I am morally certain the tune is NOT Williams. I don't have the book in front of me, so I can't be sure what the tune IS, but from the Source note I strongly suspect that it should be ST. THOMAS (Ashworth), which is a C.M. tune that well suits the texts. Would someone who has access to that hymnal please look it up and insert the appropriate authority link? Thanks in advance! ;-)

I also note that the tune authority page for ST. THOMAS (Williams) seems to imply that Handel composed it, although the Psalter Handbook information indicates it is truly by Williams as advertised. Is there a way to deprecate that Handel link so it doesn't appear prominently in the authority? 

Also, does anyone have any information (or even speculation) as to how/when/where/by-whose-hand the tune acquired the name of the Saint? "Soldiers of Christ, Arise" doesn't seem like a particularly thomasoid text. Is it named for some obscure parish church in Leeds or something?
