Abstract
We show that a free nilpotent group of countable rank, as well as a free group of countable rank of the variety defined by the identity [[x1 x2,..., xn], [xn+1, xn+2]]=1, satisfies the maximal condition for normal subgroups admitting endomorphisms induced by order preserving one-to-one mappings of the set of free generators into itself.
