James, like his younger brother Hector, was an artist of considerable talent, and has been described as an "enigmatic genius". James likely suffering from tuberculosis, moved farther south, first to New Orleans by 1842 and later to Tallahassee, Flordia. Where he lived with one of the three sons of Robert Braden, probably Joseph A. Braden. In a surviving letter he wrote to his father just prior to his departure for Tallahassee he complained of chest pains and added that his art had given him much pain and little profit.
