14 August,1871.

Lieber Jung,

Sagen Sie Le Moussu (der sich *Constant* nennen muss) to go with the enclosed card to Mr. Rosenthal, *N. 2, Red Lion Square*. He must say to be sent by Mr. *Eugène Oswald*.

Rosenthal is a French Jew who perhaps will be able to employ Le Moussu as *dessinateur*. He does of course best not to say at all that he is a refugee.

There are two Rosenthals, father and son. Le Moussu will do well to speak with of them. He must go *at once*, because the places vacant must be filled *this week*.

Please send also to my house the *Italian artist*—I don't know his name, but remember to have seen him amongst our refugees. I can perhaps find him an occupation.

I enclose a few lines for Mdme Tomanowski.

Mes civilités à Madame Jung.

Tout à vous,

K. Marx.
