[Brighton,] 24 August [1871] 

Dear Frep, 

Your letter with the £5—for which many thanks—arrived at 
midday, by which time I had already sent my telegram.” 

I shall write a few lines to New York tomorrow.’ The appeal can 
be made after my return to London (next Saturday’). 

You can see the abject collapse of The Public Opinion?” from 
the letter which I have just sent to my wife today.” 

So Lafargue is at liberty! ? 

Salut. 
Your 
K. M.
