Maurice was a lawyer of eminence and Judge of Superior Courts in State under
Royal rule. He with Martin Howard and Richard Henderson, constituted the
Judicial Bench of NC when the Rev. shut up the courts. In the troubles of the
Regulatios in 1771, although he could not approve their outrages, he
sympathized with their distresses. He openly denounced Gov. Tryon as a tyrant.
He was a member of the Provincial Congress, which met at Hillsboro in 1775 and
1776 at Halifax, and aided materially in forming the State Constitution. He
d.1777, and at the same time, in the same house, his distinguished brother
James Moore, also died, Col. of the 1st Cont. Reg., while on his way to join
Gen. Washington. Both active, enterprising and devoted to the cause of their
Country.
