Re: Why didn't Thayer attack Price?

If our family's oral history is correct, General Price was later in what is now
White County, at the home of Fielding Price brought there by Lt. Frederick
Price who had gone with Gen. Price on his raid.
Our oral history was that Sterling Price needed fresh horses.
So, Lt Fielding Price of the 1st Arkansas Cav. and several more were then captured
around Augusta, a few days afterward along with several other men supposedly trying
to catch up with General Price.
That was late November of 1864. Fielding Price died on Feb. 1, 1865 in the Yankee
Prison in Little Rock.
No one asked for input, but supposedly that is the way it happened.
