MARX TO ENGELS

IN MANCHESTER

[London,] 30 December [1857]

Dear Frederick,

Come what may I shall have to deal with the Lucknow-Oudh affair on FRIDAY (1ST OF JANUARY). Could you let me have ANY ARTICLE, HOWEVER SHORT, on this subject by the day after tomorrow.[1] IT WOULD

BE EXTREMELY SEASONABLE.

A happy New Year to you.

Your

K. M.

The enclosed greetings are not to be handed to Lupus until New Year's Day.
