In 1857, he sold out and was appointed Consul-General at Montevideo, Uruguay where he spent the last twenty years of his life and was much respected by all his acquaintances. Before leaving for Montevideo, he disposed of his right of succession to the family estates to his brother, Stuart Caradoc. References: (1) "History of the Munros of Fowlis" by A.
