Two point sets H and K are said to be strongly separated if there exist two mutually exclusive domains DH and DK containing H and K respectively such that either and are mutually exclusive or · is R. L. Moore has shown [2, Theorem 153, Chapter I] that if S is a normal Moore space and H and K are two mutually separated point sets then H and K are strongly separated. In this paper it is shown that if 5 is a Moore space, (1) H and K are two mutually separated point sets and (2) the closure of the set of all boundary points of H which do not belong to is compact, then H and K are strongly separated.
