I 18 April 1863. 
Dear Engels,

The enclosed scrap underlined in red (the sheet is E. Meyen’s) Lassalle sent me today a week ago; it arrived, therefore, one day after the dispatch of my letter to you, in which I gave you a short extract from the latest pamphlet of Itzig. He evidently now wants me to step into the lists for him. Que faire?
