MARX TO ENGELS176

IN MANCHESTER

[London,] 29 June 1857

Dear Engels,

From the enclosed letter you will see that Dana is expecting the manuscript soon.[1] What am I to tell him? I can't plead sickness, since I am continuing to send ARTICLES to the Tribune. It's a very awkward CASE.

My wife is still in the status quo. On top of that, a nasty cough and domestic worries, serious ones. I hope you are recovering. Steffen was here yesterday.

Your

K. M.
