For justifying the enunciation which he gives, M. Ganesh Prasad utilises the original demonstration of the first author : then he gives a historical note, very interesting by the side of the old demonstration. M. Prasad gives always, whenever possible, as simple a proof as the question under consideration would allow. Many of these proofs are due to M. Prasad himself, for example, that which M. Prasad gives on pages 60-61 for a criterion for the summability (C 1) which I enunciated at another time.
