{London,] Friday, 6 February 1852 
28 Dean Street, Soho 

Dear Engels, 

I have just received your article.* 

I am writing no more than a line or two, being short of time 
because of the departure of the mail for America and thus unable 
to go out to inquire about ‘Richter’” until later. 

I would, by the way, be glad if in the meantime you could send 
me the £2 by postal order. I shall be receiving some Money next week 
and shall then deliver the £2 to Pieper in your name. But it is 
important for me to have it at the beginning of the week whereas 
to him it can only be a matter of indifference, since he is well 
provided for just now. 

Your 
K. M.
