MARX TO J. M. WEBER
IN BERLIN
London, 2 August 1860
9 Grafton Terrace, Maitland Park, Haverstock Hill
Sir,
I regret that, having been out of town for a few days, I did not receive your letter until today.[1] I enclose the sum of 32 Reichstalers, and, while tendering my best thanks for your careful attention to my affairs to date, would request you to go ahead with the appeal in the Supreme Tribunal. Though I do not expect to be successful, no stone should be left unturned in the endeavour to obtain justice. Legally the argument put forward by the High Court appears to me to be quite untenable.
I should be exceedingly grateful if you would send me by return your petition of 21.6.60 or, should the latter have to remain on the files for the time being, ask your secretary to make a summary of the charges contained therein (along with a list of the documents supporting the individual charges) and remit me the same.
I have, Sir, the honour to be
Your obedient Servant
Dr Karl Marx
- ↑ Weber's letter had reached Marx as early as 29 July but it was not until 2 August, when Marx got the money for the payment of Weber's fee and the legal costs from Engels and Wolff in Manchester, that he was able to answer it (see this volume, pp. 175-77).
