MARX TO ENGELS

IN MANCHESTER

[London,] 31 January [1861]

DEAR Frederick,

Letter containing £10[1] received with very many thanks. I must now be off, mainly for the purpose of paying the gas and rates, otherwise the fellows will send in the BROKER. AS for the other cads, I shall have to see how I can arrange matters with them.

[2][3][4][5][6]

I shall write to you at greater length as soon as I hear from you tomorrow.

Salut.

Your
