Bennettsville, Feb. 7—Rev. Baxter F. McLendon, the evangelist, is slowly recovering at his home here from a nervous breakdown that he had in New Orleans four weeks ago. For two weeks little hope was held out for his recovery.
During the year he took no vacation and has had very little rest for the last 12 years. During that time he has put as many or more people in the churches than any other man in the country.
He has disbanded his party and cancelled the Oklahoma City engagement, also the city wide campaign in Philadelphia scheduled for the months of April and May. For some time he will only hold short meetings in churches.
