MARX TO MAX OPPENHEIM
IN PRAGUE
[Karlsbad,] 6 September 1876
Dear Friend,
Your sister's letter enclosed; her news of the aventures de Norderney[1] was of the very greatest interest to my daughter[2] and myself. I have seen your sister's portrait and heard many complimentary things about her in Hanover, and had hoped to make her acquaintance at your home in Prague; however, I see from your letter that she is still staying in Aachen.
My cure ends on Sunday.;[3] Monday is therefore the day appointed for our departure for Prague[4] nevertheless, it's possible that our stay at Karlsbad will have to be prolonged. My daughter has suddenly become unwell. I hope it's nothing serious; I'm expecting a second visit from the doctor this evening. You shall have further information as soon as I can communicate something more definite.
Yours very sincerely,
Karl Marx
