Moore left Washington in mid-March 1912 for what his wife said was a pleasure trip to England.
The main purpose for his trip was to find and buy English Foxhounds for the Loudoun Hunt.
While there, he also attended the Grand National horse race.
Moore bought 50 pairs (100) of the dogs and booked first class travel back to the U.S. for himself and his English manservant, Charles Henry Harrington.
 They boarded the RMS Titanic on April 10 at Southampton with ticket number 113769 at a cost of £42, 8s, equivalent to £4,230 in 2019, or about $5,640.
Moore had originally planned to transport the dogs with him on the Titanic, though ultimately made other arrangements for them.

According to survivor accounts, on the night of the ship's iceberg collision and sinking, Moore was playing cards in the smoking room with his dining companions and fellow Americans, Major Archibald Butt, Harry Elkins Widener, and William Carter (husband of Lucile).
Among the stories Moore told that evening was how he had helped a newspaper reporter interview Anse Hatfield, the patriarch on one side of the infamous Hatfield–McCoy feud.
The Washington Times wrote that Moore and Butt, who was also from Washington, remained together until jumping into the water as the ship went down.
Their bodies were never recovered.
Moore's employer and business associate, William B. Hibbs, went to New York, where many survivors were taken by the RMS Carpathia, and Brigadier General Edwards went to the White House at Moore's wife's pleading, though no additional information was available.
