Christy, of Paris, Pennsylvania, from whom he obtained a thorough and practical knowledge of the medical science. In 1883 he entered Cleveland Medical College, graduating February 25, 1885. He then began his professional career at Florence, a small town in Hanover township, Washington County, where he remained six years, thence moving to a home in Midway, where many of his former patients came from Florence to see him. Dr. Moore developed a large and lucrative practice, and enjoyed the confidence of all who knew him.
