Moore Dies at Lakeport After Banking Downfall in New Hampshire
Dr Joseph Clifford Moore died at his Lakeport cottage ending a career once dubbed the New Hampshire Napoleon of finance. He built a banking and business empire in Manchester, including the National Bank of the Commonwealth and Derryfield Savings Bank, whose collapse followed the Morrill flight to Argentina. He faced indictments, served a brief prison term for overissuing stock, and spent his final years as a country physician.
