Dr. Moore is best known as a venerable father in the ministry, an active friend of all genu ine reform, a public-spirited citizen always interested in the affairs of the town, the church, and the nation eminently happy in his domestic relations, surrounded by the comforts' of an ample estate acquired by his own management, and given to hospitality with an unstinted hand. His vigorous health, con sistent piety, and studious habits united in forming a character of rare worth and dignity. He died on 8 April, 1871, with out knowing sickness, at the ripe age of ninety-two years, five months, and twentv davs. His flmeral was attended in the Con gregational meeting-house, in the erection of which he shared a generous portion of the expense. Rev. Blessrs. Ayer and Perry, with Drs. Wallace and Davis, joined with the pastor, Rev. G. E. Freeman, in the solemnities.
