Manchester, 10 February 1859

Dear Moor,

The news about Eccarius is truly staggering. What a heroic letter
he wrote you! That such a fine chap should come to such a
pitiful end! We are losing our best men during this wretched
period of peace, and the new blood is very pauvre.

Herewith Lassalle's letter. I'm glad the manuscript has arrived.

What did Freiligrath have to say concerning my letter about
Kinkel? To me he wrote, 'ALL RIGHT, ALL RIGHT' and said he had given
his answer to you. So you still owe it to me.

I am going home now and shall get an article on the Austrian
and German federal army done in time for the 2nd post.

Your
F. E.
