Horace Price was born in Malvern into an ecclesiastical family on 3 August 1863: his father was W. Salter Price.[1] He was educated at Rossall School and Trinity College, Cambridge (whence he gained a Cambridge Master of Arts {MA Cantab}),[2] made deacon at Advent 1886 (19 December), by Archibald Campbell Tait, Bishop of London, at St James's, Piccadilly[3] and ordained priest the following year. He was a CMS Missionary in Sierra Leone then a Curate in Wingfield, Suffolk before serving the Anglican Church in Japan where he eventually became Archdeacon of Osaka. In 1905 he became Bishop in Fukien,[4] serving until 1918. He was consecrated bishop on Candlemas 1906 (2 February) at Westminster Abbey, by Randall Davidson, Archbishop of Canterbury.[5] Returning to the UK he was Assistant Bishop of Ely and Archdeacon of Ely (1919 onwards), Vicar of Pampisford (1919–1921) and Canon Residentiary of Ely Cathedral (1921 onwards)[6] until his death on 21 November 1941.[7] He had become a Doctor of Divinity (DD).
