Prominent Singer Man Dead

C.T. Hyatt, Member of Business Firm, Untimely Summoned.

Singer, La., Sept. 14.- The death of Cordean T. Hyatt, which occurred
at this place last Friday afternoon about 3 p.m., was one of the 
saddest and most unexpected in the history of this little town. Mr.
Hyatt was sick but a few days and no one realized that his condition
was at all critical until a very few hours before his death.

No man in this vicinity enjoyed a wider circle of friends than did
Mr. Hyatt. His word was as good as his bond, hnce all who knew him
had implicit confidence in him. He left a good name behind him which
will long keep his memory green in the hearts of his friends. Unkind
words did not belong in his vocabulary. There was nothing little in 
his character, but much that was broad and charitable. Words fail to
express the enormity of the loss sustained by this community in the
death of this noble man among noble man. Every one grieves as for the
loss of a brother.

Mr. Hyatt was a successful business man. He was the junior partner
of the firm of Hyatt Bros. At one time he was a prominent teacher
in the public schools of the parish. He leaves a wife and four children,
a mother and several brothers.
