  Let K be a non-archimedean local field. This paper gives an explicit
isomorphism between the dual of the special representation of GL_{n+1}(K)$and
the space of harmonic cochains defined on the Bruhat-Tits building of
GL_{n+1}(K), the definition of harmonic cochains is in the sense of E. de
Shalit [Residues on buildings and de Rham cohomology of p-adic symmetric
domains, Duke Math. J., 106, 123-191, (2000)]. We deduce, applying a work of P.
Schneider and U. Stuhler, [The cohomology of p-adic symmetric spaces, Inv.
Math. 105, 47-122, (1991)], that for K of any characteristic, there exists a
GL_{n+1}(K)-equivariant isomorphism between the cohomology group of the
Drinfeld symmetric space and the space of harmonic cochains.
