Biographical History

Soldier.

Louis Singleton Price, of Nicholasville, Ky., entered the Confederate Army while still a minor. Captured by the Union, he was held prisoner, first at Camp Chase, Ohio, then at Camp Douglas, Ill. After at least two unsuccessful attempts, he succeeded in escaping from Camp Douglas, fleeing to Canada where he spent most of his time in Toronto, Ont. under the alias of William Singleton. Throughout his stay in prison and in exile, he associated with members of John Hunt Morgan's cavalry and other escaped Confederate soldiers. Shortly after returning to Nicholasville, he died (October, 1867) and was buried with his father and two of his brothers, in the Lexington Cemetery.
