    Muchas gracias, je vous remerci and THANK YOU to all who responded to my request for help locating the l'"Essai de mecanique intuitionnelle" by Gustave Guillaume (1951?). Due to the wonderful aid offered by the linguistic community I am close to acquiring this text. For future Guillaumian researchers I have attached the results of my quest.

    Walter Hirtle, a Guillaume scholar, had written that this essay would soon be published [Current Issues in Linguistic Theory, V.31, p168, John Benjamins Publishing Company, Amsterdam/Philadelphia c1984].

    Dr. John Hewson, (Memorial University of Newfoundland -Canada), informed me that Mr. Hirtle is now retired, and he believed the essay existed only in ms form. Profesor Francisco Hernandez Paricio (Universidad de Zaragosa-Spain), researched his library facilities on my behalf as well as suggesting that I contact Ronald Lowe, the director of the Guillaume foundation at the University of Laval - Canada.

    Mr. Lowe's response indicated that the "Essai de mecanique intuitionnelle" has never been published, and does exist only in manuscript form but it is available through the foundation. Anyone interested in this (or any other Guillaume document) should visit the new (still under construction) web site for the foundation: http://www.fl.ulaval.ca/fgg
