The Sabine Index - Dr. C. C. Self

  28 Aug 1942 - Dr. C. C. Self, 73, a friend to humanity, died at

o'clock from the Assembly of God church of Hornbeck with the Rev.
George H. Harrison officiating. He was buried in the Oak Grove

stationed at San Antonio, Texas, for a time. He was mill doctor
at Barham, one and a half miles south of Hornbeck, for a long
time. His last mill practice was at Gandy before the mill company
cut out there. He was a believer in the Lord Jesus Christ and no
doubt did much for his Lord as he went about his daily duties,
besides preaching at time, and also singing unto the Lord.
  Dr. Self is survived by his widow, Mrs. Nancy Jane Self; six
sons, Edgar, Herman, Thomas, C. C., Jr., Homer and Hary Self, all
of Hornbeck; four daughters, Mrs. Nina Conerly of Beaumont,
Texas; Mrs. Genie Jan of Lake Charles, Mrs. Marie Wilson of
Milam, Texas, and Mrs. Beulah Greer of Leesville; one sister,
Mrs. Ella Britt, Amhurst, Texas. And there are a great host of
friends and relatives in many states left to mourn his death.
Many, many people have been to rejoice for his having come their
way while he lived and worked here on earth.
