  Given an odd prime number p, we describe a continued fraction in the field
F(p) of power series in 1/T with coefficients in the finite field F_p, where T
is a formal indeterminate. This continued fraction satisfies an algebraic
equation of a particular type, with coefficients in F_p[T] which are
explicitely given. We observe the close connection with other algebraic
continued fractions studied thirty years ago by Mills and Robbins.
