[London,] 7 January 1875 

Dear Liebknecht, 

Happy New Year! 

Tomorrow or the day after I shail send you the epilogue and list 
of printer’s errors.” 

Owing to lack of time I have not, for the most part, read the 
explanations of terms. Only one thing struck me: ‘fleurs de lys’, 
mentioned in connection with Fleury, are what the brand-marks 
were called that were imprinted on felons during the ancien régime 
in France. 

The essay on the banking system is downright bad.* Kirch- 
mann’s stuff, too, would have been better left out of the Volks- 
staat.” 

With kindest regards to all your family. 

Your 
K. M.
