he attributed the child to Engels, who accepted this comedy. Marx drank heavily. Riazanov, director of the Marx-Engels Institute in Moscow, admits this fact in his book Karl Marx, Mai, Thinker aid Revolutionist.

Eleanor was Marx’s favorite daughter. He called her Tussy and frequently said, “Tussy is me.” She was shattered when she heard about the scandal of illegitimacy from Engels on his deathbed. It was this that led to her suicide.

It should be noted that Marx, in The Communist Mаnifesto, had railed against capitalists “having the wives and daughters of their proletarians at their disposal.” Such hypocrisy was not out of character for Karl Marx.

“The dog” died, and Marx wrote on March 8, 1855,

A very happy event. Yesterday we were told about the death of the ninety-year-old uncle of my wife. My wife will receive some one hundred Lst; even more if the old dog has not left a pate of his money to the lady who administered his house.

He did not have any kinder feelings for those who were much nearer to him than his uncle. He was not even on speaking terms with his mother. In December 1863 he wrote to Engels,
