MARX TO ENGELS

IN MANCHESTER[1]

[London,] 15 March 1866

My dear Frederic,

The bearer of these lines is citizen Orsini, the brother of the immortal martyr,[2] and a member of our association. He leaves England for the United States, whence he will return in some months. Your advice on commercial matters may, perhaps, prove useful to him. At all events, you will be delighted to make his personal acquaintance.

Yours truly

K. Marx

Mr Frederic Engels, 7 Southgate, St Mary's, Manchester. PS. I know that Bradlaugh is an honest man and occupies a respectable position in the city as solicitor.
