Obituary:
Dr. C.A. Gwinn, 49 years old, well known Paris orthepedic specialist, was found dead in his bed in Texas Hotel at an early hour Friday morning. Death was attributed to natural causes.
Funeral services will be held Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock at the Manton-Fry Funeral Home, conducted by the Rev. W.M. Wright, pastor of the First Baptist Church. Burial will be at Evergreen Cemetery.
Dr. Gwinn was found when a guest in an adjoining room investigated after hearing a telephone ring for some time in his room. He was said to have been lying naturally in his bed, with no evidence of a struggle as he died.
Born in Greenbrier County, West Virginia, he came to Texas in 1914 in the service of the United States Government. He served two years and eight months in the US ARMY in WORLD WAR I, with the FIRST DIVISION. He was a member of the San Antonio Masonic Lodge, being a 32nd degree Mason. He came to Paris several years ago and opened an office for the practice of orthopedy and the manufacture of braces for crippled limbs. About a year ago he established an electroplating plant at his home on East Houston for finishing mental work.
Surviving are his wife, the former Dorothy Lucille McIntyre Oliver, and a 15 months old daughter, Billie Ruth Gwinn; two step-daughters, Misses Mary Jo and Dorothy Lee Oliver, who reside here; a son, Elmer Gwinn, who lives in Virginia. Elmer Gwinn, who is visiting his father but was out of the city Friday, had not been located late last night, and funeral arrangements were delayed pending advice from him.
