    The authors show that in the second Lester theorem ([\textit{J. A. Lester}, Arch. Math. 45, 561-564 (1985; Zbl 0563.51015); J. Geometry. 27, 29-35 (1986; Zbl 0595.51021); ``Handbook of incidence geometry''. Chapter 16. Elsevier Science, Amsterdam, 921--944 (1995; Zbl 0826.51010)]) one may suppose that the image is located in the space of arbitrary finite dimension, and the analogue of the first Lester theorem is valid for an arbitrary \(n\), provided that any \(n\)-dimensional simplex with a unit volume is transferred in to the simplex of a unit volume.
