Barbara Anslow:

Father Moore was an American Maryknoll Mission priest, very young and sincere.  He was one of 8 newly-ordained RC priests who had flown into Hong Kong just before the Jap. attack for transfer to Missions in China.  They joined enthusiastically in camp sports, but much of their time was taken up in language lessons (Chinese) given by an older priest, Father Bernard Meyer.
