GREAT REVIVAL CLOSED.
McLendon Meetings Ended Sunday
Night.
What is being pronounced as the
1 1_^1J

his platform and pronounced the
benediction at 10:30 o'clock Sunday
night.
The McLendon meetings begar
here Sunday morning, April 9, al
the Central warehouse and services
were conducted twice daily, except
on Mondays, until Sunday night,
April 30. During this time many
thousands of people heard the distinguished
Evangelist and perhaps
all of them were in a measure benefited
by his discourses, while hundreds
went forward and made a profession
of faith by taking his hand.
During the progress of the meeting
interest increased from day to
day as well as did the gr?at throngs
of people who came from all over
this and many from adjoining counties,
to hear him, at last filling the
big warehouse to overflowing. There
was present at the closing service
Sunday night the largest crowd that
has ever been brought together in

large enough to hold the people and
hundreds remained on the outside in
buggies, wagons and automobiles
listening through the windows and
doors to the Evangelist's parting
message.
By the preaching o^ this zealous
servant of God many souls have been
brought into a closer relationship
with their Creator and the people of
the entire community are freely
praising his wonderful work.
Monday morning Mr McLendon
left Kingstree, as did also Mr and
Mrs Pledger. Mr Marshall remained
here through Monday to look after
the shipping of the lumber
for seats, etc, to Florence where the
Evangelist and his staff of assistants
will open a similar meeting next
Sunday.
