MARX TO MAX OPPENHEIM

IN PRAGUE

Karlsbad, 1 September 1875
Germania

Dear Friend,

By the time your letter of the 12th ult. arrived in London, I had already set off on my journey here.[1] I found it extremely interesting. I shall be leaving here a week next Saturday (not this Saturday, that is, but the Saturday after)[2] and shall travel via Prague so that I may enjoy the pleasure of your company. However, urgent business will preclude my staying for more than 2 days.

With kindest regards.

Yours,

Karl Marx

  1. Between 15 August and 11 September 1875, Marx was in Karlsbad for a second time taking treatment. On his way there, he stopped over in Frankfurt am Main (see Note 109). On his way back to London, he spent several days in Prague visiting Max Oppenheim.
