The Captain of the Polestar

by Arthur Conan Doyle

July, 1995 [Etext #294]

**The Project Gutenberg Etext of The Captain of the Polestar*** *****This file should be named polst10.txt or polst10.zip******

Corrected EDITIONS of our etexts get a new NUMBER, polst11.txt. VERSIONS based on separate sources get new LETTER, polst10a.txt.

This is Etext #5 in Project Gutenberg's Arthur Conan Doyle Series

We are now trying to release all our books one month in advance of the official release dates, for time for better editing.

Please note: neither this list nor its contents are final till midnight of the last day of the month of any such announcement. The official release date of all Project Gutenberg Etexts is at Midnight, Central Time, of the last day of the stated month. A preliminary version may often be posted for suggestion, comment and editing by those who wish to do so. To be sure you have an up to date first edition [xxxxx10x.xxx] please check file sizes in the first week of the next month. Since our ftp program has a bug in it that scrambles the date [tried to fix and failed] a look at the file size will have to do, but we will try to see a new copy has at least one byte more or less.
