The American Bible Society’s Record

At a recent annual meeting of the American Bible Society at New York, report was made that the society has issued within the year in foreign lands no less than 468,926 Bibles, Testaments, or portions of the Scripture. Aside from this, 88,337 copies issued from the Bible House in New York were sent to foreign lands. The society made for the coming year the generous appropriation of $155,238.32 for foreign work. During the seventy-seven years of the society's existence it has issued nearly 57,000,000 copies of the Scriptures. This certainly is a noble record.
