Letter to Hermann Jung, April 25, 1865


MARX TO HERMANN JUNG

IN LONDON

[London,] 25 April 1865

Dear Jung,

I hope I may have the pleasure of your company at my house on Monday evening (ABOUT 8 O'CLOCK or LATER, if that hour is too early for you) for a MEETING with Ernest Jones and a small SUPPER. Apart from yourself, only Odger, Cremer and P. Fox. Had I wished to invite more guests, I should have had to ask too many for the purpose of the evening. This entre nous![1]

I have just written to Cremer[2] that he should issue the letter of authority for P. Vinçard immediately, which Dupont must then deliver to Vinçard forthwith. It would be best if Dupont could despatch the thing to Vinçard direct without it having to go by way of Fribourg.

Vinçard had already written to Lubez that he would not accept if he did not receive the POWERS direct from London. In a letter to Fribourg Lubez promised to inform the 'CENTRAL COUNCIL' of this, but did not do so. I have reason to believe that Fribourg subsequently forgot the matter, not unintentionally.

I shall give you a verbal account of what further occurred in Paris (which was for the most part good); but in the meantime you should tell Dupont.

Salut et fraternité.

K. Marx
