To Kugelmann in Hanover


London, 28 March 1870

Dear Kugelmann

As I have an abscess on the right thigh which makes sitting for any length of time impossible, I am sending you the enclosed letter for the Brunswick Comité,[1] Bracke[2] and Co, instead of writing twice. It would be best if, after reading it through, you could hand the letter over personally and remind them again that the information is confidential, not intended for the public.[3]
