MOORE - On Sunday morning, 2nd inst., at his residence, Ross Street, Woodville, Thomas Moore, aged 39 years.
Woodville Examiner, 3 Dec 1888
The late Mr Thomas Moore Shortly after five o'clock yesterday morning, Mr Thomas Moore breathed his last. From the time that he took to this bed a fortnight ago his medical attendant expressed the opinion that he could not recover, as he suffered from an affection of the heart, which must shortly prove fatal. Few were better known in Woodville or took a greater interest generally than Mr Moore and his absence from our midst will be much felt. Mr Moore came to the colony with his family when a lad of twelve years and for some time resided in Auckland. About nineteen years ago he removed to Napier, where he became well known and ten years ago he settled in Woodville and was one of our business men. From the time of his settling in the district he took an active part in every local movement and continued to do so while his health permitted. At the time of his deceased he was secretary to the Oddfellows Lodge, Foresters Court and was an officer of the Orange Lodge. He started the Volunteer Corps, of which he was captain and worked exceedingly hard in its interest. One of the most prominent results of his efforts was the erection of the fine Drill Hall, which he succeeded in getting built under much difficulty. Mr Moore was also for some time a member of the Town Board and Chairman of the Woodville Road Board. For three years he held the post of Chairman of the School Committee. He was actively connected with Methodist Church since coming to Woodville, having been one of its regular local preachers, a Trustee and Secretary to the Trustees all along, being Church Secretary as well. He was also superintendent of the Sunday School. He fulfilled his duties with scrupulous care and was most energetic in carrying out what was entrusted to his hand. He also took an active part in the building of both the old and new churches and indeed his last active work was in connection with the gift auction in aid of the church.
As marks of the esteem in which he has held, Lieut. Russell had the flag over the Drill Hall hoisted at half-mast when his death was announced and the Methodist Church was draped in black yesterday. The Rev Mr Wrigley referred to his death yesterday morning and again in the evening; during service he reminded his congregation of the fact that only a fortnight before a large number had heard the last sermon from him who was now no more and invited the congregation to follow the remains to the grave. The Rev gentleman also referred to the numerous offices in connection with the Church which Mr Moore had filled. On Sunday evening next the Rev will preach the funeral sermon.
During his illness Mr Moore was visited directly or indirectly by his many friends. To-night a meeting will be held at the Municipal Office to arrange the order of funeral procession and the time is fixed for 2 p.m. to-morrow, but the procession will not start till after the coaches have left. The funeral will be a military one and Lieut. Russell has arranged to receive a gun carriage from Napier to bear the corpse. The Oddfellows, Foresters, Orangemen and Sunday School children will form in the procession. The School too will be closed in honor of one who took so much interest in its welfare.
Mrs Moore has been much assisted during her husband's illness by Mr and Mrs Sowry and the Rev J. Wrigley and other friends to whom she desires us to tender her best thanks.
Mr Moore was 39 years of age at the time of his death and leaves a widow and three young children to mourn his loss and to them the heartfelt sympathy of the community is extended in their time of trial. The funeral will be largest and most imposing ever held in Woodville as a mark of the esteem in which deceased was held.
Woodville Examiner, 7 Dec 1888
The Funeral Of The Late Captain Moore took place on Tuesday. About 500 people were in attendance to pay their last respects to the memory of the deceased. The coffin was beautifully wreathed with flowers and was taken from the house to the hears by a party o volunteers. The procession extended for half a mile. The procession moved off the the strains of the Band shortly after 2.30 p.m. Captain Newson acted as Marshall and arranged the procession in the following order:- Volunteers, Band, Undertaker (Mr Grinlinton), open hears with corpse, carriage with the Mayor and sons of the deceased, Sunday-school teachers and children, Orangemen, Oddfellows, Foresters, Footmen, Carriages and horsemen.
The band, under Bandmaster Lawrence, played the "Dead March" on starting and again on nearing the cemetery. Arrived at the cemetery the coffin was carried by a detachment of volunteers to the grave. The Rev J. Wrigley conducted service at the grave and the volunteers, under Lieut. Russell, fired three volleys over it. P.M.'s Bros Thompson and Stothers read the Orange burial service, Bro Motley read that of the Oddfellows and Bro Blake that of the Foresters. The Sunday school children and friends of the deceased threw several pretty wreaths of flowers on the coffin and the burial ceremony over the procession reformed and returned to town, the Band playing two sacred airs. The whole ceremony was of the most imposing and touching nature, much sympathy being expressed with Mrs Moore and the relatives of deceased in their bereavement.
