Marx's letter to Engels

"16 August 1867 2 a.m.

"Dear Fred,

"Have just finished correcting the last sheet (49th) of the book. ... So, this volume is finished. I owe it to you alone that it was possible! Without your self-sacrifice for me I could not possibly have managed the immense labour demanded by the 3 volumes. I embrace you, full of thanks! ...

"Salut, my dear, valued friend.

"K. Marx."
