ENGELS TO HERMANN ENGELS
IN BARMEN
London, 26 January 1893
Dear Hermann,
What the deuce is going on? Yesterday there was first of all a telegram from Vienna, then one from Dresden, then, at five o'clock this morning, one from New York and, at 11 this morning, your own—all inquiring after my health. Well, I haven't felt better for a long time, I can again walk an English mile, I over- rather than under-indulged in good things at Christmastime, am game for anything and perfectly fit for work and now all of a sudden I'm supposed to be seriously ill!
I telegraphed back to you immediately, saying I was perfectly hale and hearty, and this I hereby confirm. Next summer I hope I shall be able to give all of you visual proof of the fact.
My love to all the relatives, also to Emma[1] and your children and grandchildren and, finally, to you yourself from
Your old
Friedrich
