Maitland Park,
March 20th / 68
Dear Engels,
Thursday the 2nd April is the day fixed
for the marriage. Could You not manage to rid
yourself of all “duties” for that day & come
over to London. Your friend Gottfried
Ermen.
Schließen Ermen does not, I am
sure, stick to business so closely as yourself,
but is on the spree often enough, why should not
You for once take a day for yourself or rather,
give a day to Your
| friends in London?
Paul
Lafargue.
Schließen Paul has written to
You & urged all due reasons why You should do
so & why You should not do otherwise, I have, therefore, nothing
more to add than that I should be delighted to see
You on the day of my marriage & very
disappointed if You did not come.
very sincerely Yours
Laura Marx.
