[London,] 6 February 1857 

Dear Engels, 

An ACKNOWLEDGMENT, in great haste, of the pounds that arrived 
today. 

Enclosed a letter from Miquel. I wrote to him at once. The 
situation as regards the Tribune is as I foresaw. Once again not a 
word. So today I wrote the fellows a forthright letter as I had 
originally intended but did not tell them that meanwhile—until 
their answer arrives—I shall discontinue my articles entirely. 

Salut. 

Your 
K. M.
