ENGELS TO JOHANN HEINRICH WILHELM DIETZ

IN STUTTGART

London, 5 August 1890

Dear Mr Dietz,

Fischer has raised further objections to the immediate re-issue of the Origin[1] this is quite acceptable to me, since I still have to go to the seaside where there can be no question of work, nor do I yet find work in any way conducive to my well-being. So I shall wait until the whole business has been settled to the satisfaction of all concerned.

Will you kindly take a look at the enclosed note for K. Kautsky[2] before sending it on and, if necessary, do what is required.

Kindest regards.

Yours,

F. E.
