MARX TO ENGELS

IN MANCHESTER

[London,] 17 August 1869

DEAR FRED,

Everything is READY here for your arrival. Don't forget, either, to take a TICKET only to KENTISH TOWN STATION (just near us), or, if you take it to ST. PANCRAS STATION, at least to get out at KENTISH TOWN STATION. Mr Lafargue, in principle, never announces the day of his arrival, on the basis that anxiety will thus be avoided should chance delays occur. That's a PRINCIPLE too!

I hope POOR Tussychen is ALL RIGHT again now. I send, enclosed, Schweitzeriana,[1] for you to enjoy on the journey.

Your

K. M.

Enclosed—COPIES (Bonaparte)[2] for 1. Charles,[3] 2. Schorlemmer, 3. Moore, 4. Gumpert.

  1. This apparently refers to a series of articles: 'Der Congress zu Eisenach', Der Social-Demokrat, Nos. 93, 94 and 95, 10, 13 and 15 August 1869.
  2. K. Marx, The Eighteenth Brumaire of Louis Bonaparte, 2nd edition.
