Biographical Note
Arthur James Moore (26 December 1888-30 June 1974), Methodist clergyman and author, was born in Argyle, Georgia, the son of John Spencer and Emma Victoria Cason Moore.  Moore studied at Emory College (1909-1911), and later received honorary degrees from Wesleyan College, Southwestern University in Texas, Asbury College, Florida Southern College, and Emory University.  Moore married Martha ("Mattie") T.  McDonald on 26 April 1906 and the couple had five children: William Harry Moore, Wilbur Wardlaw Moore, Alice Evelyn Means, Arthur James Moore, Jr., and Dorothy Emma Moore.

Choosing a vocation in the ministry in 1909, Moore entered the South Georgia Conference and began a career as a roving evangelist and eloquent speaker.  Moore was elected a bishop of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, in 1930, serving in the far west, in foreign assignments and in Georgia until his retirement in 1960.

Moore also served his church as president of the board of missions, as organizer and first president of the board of evangelism, as vice-chairman of the Board of Trustees of Emory University, and as president and chairman of the board of Wesleyan Female College.  Among his publications are two collections of sermons entitled The Sound of Trumpets (1934) and Central Certainties (1943).

Martha McDonald Moore died in 1964, and Arthur J. Moore died 30 June 1974.
