To Engels in Manchester
[London,] 16 August 1867, 2.00 a.m.[edit source]
Dear Fred,
Have just finished correcting the last sheet (49th) of the book [Volume I of Capital]. The appendix — Form of Value — in small print — takes up 1 1/4 sheets.
Preface ditto returned corrected yesterday. So, this volume is finished. I owe it to you alone that it was possible! Without your self-sacrifice for me I could not possibly have managed the immense labour demanded by the 3 volumes. I embrace you, full of thanks!
Enclosed 2 sheets of corrected proofs.
The £15 received with best thanks.
Salut, my dear, valued friend.
Your
K. Marx
I do not need to have the corrected proofs back until the book is completely out.
