ENGELS TO STANISLAW MENDELSON

IN LONDON

11 February 1892
122 Regent's Park Road, N.W.

Dear Citizen Mendelson,

Herewith the preface.[1] It isn't very much but unfortunately it's all I can let you have at the moment. By the time the new edition of the Manifesto is published, I hope to know enough of your language to have no difficulty in keeping up with the Polish working men's movement and shall then be able to speak more knowledgeably about it.

I am sending you by the same post two American papers[2] relating to S. Padlewski's suicide.

Kindly convey my compliments, as also those of Mrs Kautsky, to your wife.[3]

Yours sincerely,

F.E.
