Manchester, 15 May 1868 

Dear Moor, 

You will probably have heard that Siebel died on the 9th inst. 
My mother wrote me that shortly before he had told his wife she 
should go to bed, which she did; suddenly she could no longer 
hear his breath, jumped ‘up and found him dead. I am sending 
you 2 notices from his wife, one of which I ask you to send to 
Freiligrath. 

Enclosed 6 prints of Lupus’* photograph. 

Further something about Kobes’ present activities. 

Have you read about the Ebergenyi trial? Chorinsky’s letters 
are in fact unparalleled. One can see that the Austrians are still 
awaiting their 1789. I shall send you the relevant Zukunft this 
evening. The Ebergenyi woman is said to receive masses of visitors 
in her ‘convict prison’ with a cigarette in her mouth and as merry 
as a cricket. 

Best greetings. 

Your 
F. E. 

Apropos. The articles in the Fortnightly are all signed. If this is 
the rule, it would be most unfortunate, since then it would be easy 
to see through the business. In any case, I would have to know if 

4 Wilhelm Wolff's - & Jakob Venedey’s 

19, Marx to Engels. 16 May 1868 35 

the article must be signed, for this would change the formulation a 
lot, and know right away for I have reached the stage where I can 
start.” What is your answer to these questions?
