Nel suo libro "Pen pictures of St. Paul, Minnesota, and biographical sketches of old settlers : from the earliest settlement of the city, up to and including the year 1857", T. M. NEWSON scrive: ADOLPHUS MOORE. Mr. Moore was born in London, England, in 1822; was educated at the common schools there and learned the fur-cut- ting business; worked at his trade in the old country five years ; emigrated to America and continued his trade in New York ; came to St. Paul in 1856 and engaged in the raw fur buying business, and has been in that department ever since. He ¦opened a fur store in Concert Hall block in 1857; then moved to East Third street, between Wabasha and Cedar; then occu- pied a building on Third street, nearly opposite the First National Bank, where he remained six years; gave up the retail fur busi- ness in 1864, and has continued the buying of raw furs from that date to the present. Commodore Kittson sold to Mr. Moore in 1864 six thousand Hudson Bay mink for nine dollars apiece, or $54,000, the largest number ever brought together in one lot. The same class of goods can now be purchased for fifty and seventy-five cents apiece! He also bought about this time 18,000 buffalo robes for nine dollars apiece. Buffalo robes command now almost any price. He is married and has three daughters. He is the oldest con- tinuous president of any building association in this city or State, having been fifteen years continuously in that office, besides organizing a vast number of other associations. In personal , appearance Mr. Moore is tall and slender; quite moderate in his ways and in his speech; unaffected and sincere in his acts, and is an upright, honest, worthy citizen. ^{4 5}
