[London,] 2 March 1869 

Dear Frep, 

You must either send me the booklet from Lugau—or, better 
still, send me in German the paragraphs of the rules that you 
quote.”*! 

I shall translate the stuff myself, since I do not regard Wilhelm * 
as competent and also because I do not wish to hand over the 
affair to him alone.” 

Your 
K. M. 

Apropos. A PAMPHLET, WRITTEN BY A PUBLIC ACCOUNTANT, ADDRESSED TO Mr 
Gladstone‘ states that at least 1/10 of the Lire Assurance Co's (the 
whole business In Lire Assurance has a nominal capital of £100 
million) is bankrupt and 1s Nor WORTH THE PAPER UPON WHICH THEY PRINT 
THEIR ADVERTISEMENTS. 

What will the bourgeois gentlemen say to this, those gentlemen 
who were so very very delighted about the prospective BANKRUPTCY (in 
20 years or so) of the TRADES UNIONS? 

They will keep their mouths shut.
