{[London,] 15 November 1865 

Dear Frep, 

You must excuse me for not most gratefully acknowledging 
receipt of the £15 until today and for not writing to you until 
tomorrow. I am so pressed that I cannot manage it today. 

4 Edgar von Westphalen 

Little Jenny has diphtheria, but I hope it will soon be over. 

As soon as you have read the enclosed letter—whose manner 
and style do, incidentally, stand out most favourably from those of 
the Rhineland workers—please be so good as to send it back. 
Courtesy requires that it should be answered.*”! 

Salut. 
Your 
K. Marx
