The result of the inquiry was to bring in 5,730 names, of which, after 

 deducting those found on more than one list, 3,5*J4: independent titles 

 remain ; but of these, as will appear, a considerable portion was on our 

 list already. It may be interesting, however, to notice how these titles 

 are distributed throughout the world, the little tables in the footnote* 

 giving incidentally an interesting exposition of the activities of different 

 peoples as well as of different professions in this direction.
