ENGELS TO ERNST DRONKE
IN WATERLOO

[London,] 20 October 1876
To Dronke
My brother-in-law Blank writes to say that he absolutely and categorically refuses to enter into a transaction such as you suggest.[1] Furthermore, he tells me he severed all connections with Hinsberg, Fischer & Co. three years ago, as is indeed the case.
I am sorry that nothing has come of the matter, since I should have liked to help you in so far as it was in my power to do so.
- ↑ This note was written by Engels on Dronke's letter of 13 October 1876, in which Dronke requested Engels to help him obtain a loan of £150 to ease his precarious financial position.
