REPORT OF COUNCIL. XV. 
Mr. Moore will be principally remembered in connection 
with the Liverpool Museum, for it brought him in fre- 
quent contact with the most distinguished Naturalists, 
and his enthusiasm was well known and widely acknow- 
ledged. He was a member of most of the local scientific 
societies of Liverpool, and communications from him may 
be found in the “‘ Proceedings”’ of the Literary and Philo- 
sophical and Geological Societies, and in the ‘ Tran- 
sactions’”’ of the Historic and Biological Societies. Many 
years ago he was elected a Corresponding Member of the 
Zoological Society, and in 1892 an Associate of the 
fiinnean Society. Mr. Moore made great and very suc- 
cessful efforts to induce captains of vessels to collect and 
bring home marine specimens. He was one of the original 
members of the Biological Society, and was a member of 
the Council continuously from its foundation to his death. 
His courtesy to all visitors to the Free Public Museum 
and kindness to those seeking information will long be 
remembered, and he created many friends by the interest 
he evinced in their work. Mr. Moore’s health began 
seriously to decline about six months before his death, and 
he then retired from the Museum. In October last (1892) 
he became worse, and died on the 81st of that month. 
His remains now rest in the burial ground attached to 
the Parish Church at Knowsley, near to the Hall where 
some of his most happy days were spent.
