| Summary: | In the letter McRae explains that he will not return to the United States now that the war has ended: "Brother John continues to urge me to come back, but it is useless. I could not do so if I would & I would not if I could. There are reasons which I cannot explain why I would not be pardoned even if I were to sue for it, which I shall never do, and if I had the means & Mother was willing to join me I would bring all of you who would come, away from the country, which can never again be a home to us, such as it once was." He also discusses personal and family financial matters, including a business that two of his sisters have invested in.
