Apostelnstrasse Nr. 7Dear Engels,
A good many have already been subscribed for here, and we must shall probably soon be able to make a start. [218] But now you must without fail make demands on your old man and in general declare definitively what is to be done in Barmen and Elberfeld.
A prospectus (written by Bürgers ) [Bürgers, ‘Prospectus for the Founding of the Neue Rheinische Zeitung, later published in Das Westphälische Dampfboot, 17 May 1848], etc., has been sent from here to Hecker in Elberfeld.
Have you no address for Dronke? He must be written to forthwith.
Answer by return. I might come to your part of the world if things don’t look too fearsome with you.[219]
Your
M.
