ENGELS TO PASQUALE MARTIGNETTI

IN BENEVENTO

London, 11 April 1885 122 Regent's Park Road, N.W.

Dear Sir,

I am writing these few lines just to tell you that I have received the translation[1] and am dealing with it. I hope to be able to return it with my comments and suggestions in ten to fifteen days' time. What I have managed to read so far seems very well done.

Thanking you cordially, I remain your devoted

F. Engels
