The news of the death in New York of Louis
Harris came as great surprise to mis- many
friends and the friends of his family in this
city. Few knew that he had been sick. al
| though it was learned later that when he left
for New York with his father Mr.. Arnold H ar
ris, he was suffering from severe cold; that
soon after arrival there he went to Mt Siani
for treatment, and that death resulted from
meningitis, complicated with Bright's dis
ease. We are without the necessary
data for complete obituary; but the early
days of the deceased were spent in this CITY,
with the exception of few years in
business in California, and since the family
moved to New York Mr. and Mrs. Arnold Har-
ris. until the latter's death, and Louis, had
spent the summers here and Mrs. Hyams
had been here more or less in the season. For
the past two seasons the physical infirmities
of Mr. Arnold Harris had confined him to the
house and the business of looking after their
large real estate interests devolved upon
Louis, who not only attended to it faithfully
but was devoted to his father and ministerial
to him in every way. When they left here
Louis expected, after a short stay in New
York. to accompany his father south, making
the journey by easy stages and hoping that
the change of scene and climate might prove
beneficial to his aged parent. But this was
not to be, and the surviving father and sisters
are called upon to mourn the loss of devoted
miss one to whom they were indebted for kind
ly acts and earnest sympathy
