Price Leads NSW Parliament Career Amid Reform Shifts
A senior NSW figure, Mr. Price, first elected in August 1894 at age 22, represented Gloucester until the redistribution absorbed it into Oxley. He faced multiple deputations and demands during Easter Show proceedings, but announced he cannot undertake Parliament duties due to business pressure. His long independence, past refusals of cabinet rank, and pastoral interests frame a career marked by public service and caution amid shifting party alignments.
