MARX TO PYOTR LAVROV[1]

IN LONDON

[London,] 8 October 1875
41 Maitland Park Road, N. W.

Dear Friend,

I am sorry that I and my wife were not at home when you were kind enough to call.

I got the Quelques Mots d'un Groupe... Russe etc. from Engels[2] and shall, with your permission, show it to another of my friends before returning it. This puerile scriptum does not warrant an answer.

Yours sincerely,

K. M.
