MARX TO AN UNKNOWN CORRESPONDENT

IN LONDON

[London,] 31 January 1881
41 Maitland Park Road, N. W.

Dear Sir,

Please to forward me the papers etc. enumerated in the enclosed list. At the same time you would greatly oblige me by the information whether there exists a short compendium of the Factory and Work- shops' Acts?

I possess myself the several Acts, but a member of the French Chamber of Deputies has asked me to procure him such a compen- dium where he might find the whole matter together. Has not been something of the sort been published by Mr Redpath, Factory In- spector?[1]

Yours truly,

Karl Marx
