  Handbook of Texas Online:
In 1876 the Texas legislature formed Moore County from lands formerly assigned to Bexar County, and soon ranchers began moving into the area.
Thousands of acres of Moore County land were first cultivated between 1910 and 1920, as many of the old ranches began to sell their lands to newly arriving farmers.
The county's population increased to 13,349 by 1950 and to 14,773 by 1960 and then continued to rise, to 16,575 by 1980, to 17,865 by 1990, and to 20,121 by 2000.

 Fields v. Moore - Texas DUI Lawyers
The dispositive question before us is whether the summary judgment evidence raises a fact issue on whether Euline Moore, a landlord, should have reasonably foreseen an unreasonable risk of harm to her tenant, Deborah Fields, from a violent sexual assault by another tenant of Moore's.
Fields sued Moore for damages, contending that Moore's failure to warn her of Vestal's possible criminal conduct and her failure to secure the rental premises against criminal acts constituted negligence and a proximate cause of the assault.
Consequently, Moore was entitled to summary judgement if she established as a matter of law that it was not reasonably foreseeable that Vestal would commit an assault on Fields.

Moore was a brilliant naval commander and an excellent administrator, but he lacked the kind of political skills needed to maneuver the labyrinth of Texas politics, and he was surprised to find that President Lamar’s political support had eroded to virtually nothing.
Moore demanded a court-martial, as required by Texas law, and when Houston ignored Moore, the commodore published a pamphlet, “To the People of Texas,” in which he set out the doings of the Texas Navy in great detail.
