On 20 January 1909 a man sits down to write his testament, certain that in two days he will die of old age. He must warn the world about a house whose inhabitants have learned to prolong their lives by drawing the vital cells of others into themselves through a kind of magnetism. Translated from the French by Arthur Livingston.
