After wandering in Arkansas and Louisiana, during the early part of the war, he died at Little Rock, in 1863, in a condition of extreme poverty.
Of General Price, I heard many praises, even from those who opposed his course.

He was said to be a man of warm friendship, of fair abilities, and quite popular among the masses of the inhabitants.

He possessed much personal pride, and his ambition for public honor was very great.

At the outset he deprecated secession, and prophesied a devastating war as the result.

He was inclined to be loyal, but his ambition was greater than his patriotism.
