He was born in Buncombe
county in 1869 and spent the
greatest part of his life in West
ern North Carolina.
As to his character and citizen
ship the Asheville Citizen con
tains the following:
"The death of Judge Moore
will come with a shock of grief
and surprise to the people of
Asheville and Western Carolina,
and to many all -.over the state,
where he was known and loved.
As a citizen, a lawyer and a
judge he was held in the highest
of esteem and admiration. Of
flawless private character and of
unusual legal ability, he graced
the high position to -which his
merits as a young man had ele
vated him and his lovable per
sonality endeared him to thous
ands of friends. Few men in
public life in the state measured
so well up to his standard, be
cause he was a well rounded

all, an exemplar of the highest
citizenship and manhood. Sat
