On January 23, 1861, when Lee wrote the letter to one of his sons, Virginia had not yet seceded and the matter of secession was still object of a deeply discussion among the Virginians and the opinions in their Convention were balancing and seemed far from making a final decision.
Therefore Lee sent that letter in order to state his thought about the question. He wrote (approximately): .....I cannot predict a greater calamity for the Country than a dissolution of the Union. It would be an accumulation of all the evils for which we complain ....... but a Union that could be maintained only with swords and bayonets, and when the brawl and the civil war should take the place of the fraternal love and kindness, would have no attraction for me..........

The letter of Lewis Douglass to his fiancee was likely written in the mid-19th century, around the 1850s to 1860s. Lewis Douglass was the son of Frederick Douglass, a prominent figure in the abolitionist movement during that time. The content and language of the letter would reflect the historical context of that era.

The American people (US citizens) are generally well informed in relevance to their time. Another words, during the 1860s in the US, most Americans were more informed about the US Civil War since they had to live thru it. At the same time, they would have absolutely no knowledge whatsoever about the Vietnam War, since they didn't live in the 1960s. Bottom line: Americans living in the 1860s would be generally knowledgeable about the 1860s, Americans living in the 1960s would be generally knowledgeable about the 1960s, etc.
