London, 24 November 1860 

Sir, 

I should be greatly obliged if you would insert the declaration * 
overleaf in the Volks-Zeitung as soon as possible and let me have a 
copy thereof. 

You will probably receive a copy of my anti-Vogt pamphlet” 
next week. I am sending 3 copies to my friend Lassalle, 1 for 
himself, 1 for the Countess Hatzfeldt and 1 for Miss Ludmilla 
Assing. 

Would you be so kind as to apprise L. of this; also of the fact 
that for the past week my wife has been prostrated by a very grave 
nervous fever, so that, on doctor’s orders, I was compelled to 
lodge the 3 children elsewhere. L. will realise that, in the 
circumstances, I cannot write letters, but he would greatly oblige 
me by writing himself. 

I am, Sir, 
Your most obedient Servant, 
K. Marx
