Letter to Ludwig Schorlemmer, July 31, 1893


ENGELS TO LUDWIG SCHORLEMMER

IN DARMSTADT

London, 31 July 1893

My dear Schorlemmer,

I do not wish to set off on my trip to the Continent,[1] which begins tomorrow, without replying to your letter of the 27th.

Unfortunately there will not be time to see you in Darmstadt, as I shall be traveling straight through to Switzerland and Austria.

Nothing definite from Siebold. He too has been sent to Switzerland for the Alpine climate and won't be back for some time. Nothing can be done about the matter until I return.[2]

That is all. I must close, for there were visitors between 10 and 4 and I didn't have a minute to myself.

Many regards to you and your family.

Yours,

F. Engels
