Thomas Moore is described by Edwards, in his "Gangrna," part ii. p. 86, as "a great sectary, that did much hurt in Lincolnshire, Norfolk, and Cambridgeshire; who was famous also in Boston, Lynn, and even in Holland, and was followed from place to place by many." His work, in a quarto volume, was published in 1643; and in the same year a reply to it appeared from the pen of Thomas Whitefield, "Minister of the Gospel at Great Yarmouth." Mr Orme remarks, "He takes care to inform us on the title-page that Thomas Moore was late a weaver at Wills, near Wisbitch.'?" And he adds, in regard to Moore's production, "Without approving of the argument of the work, I have no hesitation in saying that it is creditable to the talents of the weaver, and not discreditable to his piety." The weaver, it should be added, was the author of some other works: "Discovery of Seducers that Creep into Houses," "On Baptism," "A Discourse about the Precious Blood and Sacrifice of Christ," etc.
