This total of fifty-eight counties in which church service is held in a foreign tongue does not at all indicate the number of such churches. In many of the reports received the number is not given, or merely in the plural. These very incomplete reports indicate one hundred thirty-eight such churches; it is safe to say that the number is nearly double this.

The number of separate schools in a foreign language so far as reported is seventy-four, and here, too, it is safe to say that the actual number is much larger.
