Engels sent this telegram to the presidium of the Cologne congress of the Social-Democratic Party of Germany in response to the greeting sent to him, at August Bebel’s suggestion, on the opening day of the congress, October 22, 1893. The greeting read: “The representatives of the German Social Democrats attending the party congress at the birthplace of German socialism send their sincere greetings and grateful acknowledgements to the co-founder of socialism and their indefatigable champion.“
