VERNE Jules [Nantes, 1828 - Amiens, 1905], French novelist.
Autograph letter signed. Treport, September 29, 1879; 1 page in-8°.
"I received your kind letter. I must confess that I cannot decide to make the St Michel do the job of fish collector. You would admit that after the campaign, he would have some traces of his winter work left and that he would feel more like a fishing boat than a yacht []. Besides, the expenses that it involves are less considerable than one would think, and pass almost unnoticed in my budget".
