Summons Comes To Yavapai Pioneer
Hon. A. A. Moore Passes Away at Glendale
Remains Are Brought To Old Home
Hon. A. A. Moore died December 22nd at the home of his son, Ira L. Moore, at Glendale, after an illness of several months. The cause was appendicitis. He was operated upon during November but his advanced age and weakened condition precluded his recovery. The body was brought to Walnut Grove for burial, where the deceased had resided for over a third of a century and engaged in mining, farming and livestock raising.
The deceased had been a conspicuous figure in the political life of this county, being elected for three terms as a member of the Arizona legislature, two terms as a supervisor of this county, and was a member from this county of the constitutional convention. In all his public service Mr. Moore acquitted himself honorably and capably. Before coming to Arizona in 1876 he was a member of the Kansas assembly, and although a pronounced Democrat, his vote was cast for John Plumb as a United States senator from that State as a Republican. This fearless move characterized Mr. Moore as unflinching and resolute in behalf of any cause he espoused, and for which act he was in later years commended by his party followers. Mr. Moore was an earnest advocate in behalf of advancing the interests of Yavapai or Arizona at large, and his modest and retiring manner made him many strong friends in and out of his party. He was born in Ohio and was 83 years of age.
