MARX TO FRANZ DUNCKER

IN BERLIN

[London,] 17TH MARCH 1859

Dear Sir,

I am returning the proofs[1] in an envelope because advised by the Post Office over here that, while proofs may be sent from Berlin to London, they must go from London to Berlin as letters.

Page 32, in the final lines I forgot to amend 'more profound economic differences between English and French, etc., political economy' to 'more profound fundamental, etc.' My memory may be deceiving me, but it seems to me that the beginnings of the sentences on p. 33, both in the text and in the first note, were missing on p. 32.

Yours very faithfully,

K. M.
