Dear Friends,

The Jules Verne Virtyal Libraru now has the "Le testament d'un excentrique" in
both PDF and DOC forms, as contributed by Joseph Devouge-Ruvira,
<josephdevougeruvira~at~noos.fr>. The URLs are
http://jv.gilead.org.il/jo/Le%20testament%20d%E2%80%99un%20excentrique.pdf
and
http://jv.gilead.org.il/jo/Le%20testament%20d%E2%80%99un%20excentrique.doc
repectively. I am now in the process of converting these to HTML, which will
be ready in a few days.
The URL will be
http://jv.gilead.org.il/jo/Le%20testament%20d%E2%80%99un%20excentrique/

Best,

Zvi.
