[Jersey,] Thursday [10 September 1885] 

Dear Kautsky, 

We are still here thanks to a violent storm and while it lasts I can- 
not be responsible for allowing the children to sail. Nor is it likely that 
we shall be able to leave tomorrow. *?! So that puts paid to the pros- 
pect of seeing you both again at my home on Sunday.* Kindest 
regards to your wife. 

Your 
F.E.
