ENGELS TO MARX

IN ARGENTEUIL

Great Yarmouth, 20 August 1882
10 Columbia Terrace

Dear Moor,

The money has been paid in so I went straight to the bank today and requested a draft for 1,200 frs. I hope to have it on Tuesday.

How did last Tuesday's[1] great medical examination go[2] ? Not a word about it so far.

If there is any difficulty about the CHEQUE, just send it back and I shall then send you a draft on Paris instead. It was simply a make-shift arrangement.

Pumps and BABY[3] are very lively; the little thing has already got two teeth. Schorlemmer leaves for Germany tomorrow week. The table is being laid so I've got to stop.

Your

F. E.
