ENGELS TO PANAIT MUSOIU
IN BUCHAREST
London, 20 March 1894 122 Regent's Park Road, N. W.
Dear Comrade,
Owing to my absence from London[1] I have been prevented from answering your letter of 24 February any earlier. This I duly received as well as the Manifestul comunist and Socialism utopic si socialism stüntific[2] for which very many thanks. Unfortunately I am not yet sufficiently versed in Romanian to be able to give an opinion on the merits of your translation. But I would caution you against taking the French translation as a basis when working on a German book.
Unfortunately time does not permit me to comply with your request that I write a preface to the new edition. I am busy putting the finishing touches to Volume III of Marx's Capital and, since printing is going rapidly ahead, I must devote all my time to the completion of the rest of the manuscript in order that no hold-ups should occur.
With kindest regards,
F. Engels
