#5. Death of an Estimable Citizen. On the morning of the 10th inst., there died in this city Mr. Issac R. Hyams, a most estimable citizen. His death was not unexpected and yet the announcement that he is no more will be received with unbounded regret by his numerous relations and friends. Mr. Hyams was born in Charleston, S. C. in 1837, and was therefore in the 41st year of his age. He was next to the youngest of ten children, his mother, six sisters and two brothers surviving him. His mother resides at Columbia, S. C., much advanced in years. His wife and child and brother, Mr. H. P. Hyams, have the deep and heartfelt sympathy of the entire community in their bereavement. Mr. Hyams located in Shreveport in the year 1858 and has been engaged in business here most all the time since. At the battle of Mansfield in 1864, he volunteered and received a very severe and almost fatal wound from which he suffered greatly and which finally terminated his life. He was a good man and true and enjoyed the confidence and esteem of all who knew him. His nature was kindly and gentle, and he bore uncomplainingly the heavy inflictions of the last years of his existence. He has gone to a happier and better world; but will be sadly missed and regretted by family and friends.
