I feel your disappointment Lynn. How old was it-since germination ?
I have 5 young plumbs in total from this year's efforts. 2, possibly 3 will be remaining in the house. Two of these were already acclimatised to the outdoor elements since before Autumn began. I suppose the shock effect of early frosts is something that can be a problem.
Depending on how severe the frost predictions are, the two recently acclimatised plumbs may have a day or too in the garage by a window, being the first year etc.
It was only this year’s seed so not very old, I thought it would be ok for now in GH then bring it in for the winter. Never mind can do another, may try a nectarine I think they’re a bit tougher than peach.

An expected slight difference in appearence after living outside for almost 2 weeks, but no problems.
Next photo update end of October.
Only 1cm of growth since last post two months ago. Understandable with the decreasing temperatures.
Next photo & update in the spring.
