==================================
Prior to 1867 the schools of Bristol had been only those of a private character, conducted somewhat after the manner of the Oldfield schools. In the fall of that year what was known as the Bristol High School was opened by Dr. J. D. Tadlock, in a building which had been built in 1857 by D. D. Tyler as a residence. It was occupied by him until 1862, when it was sold, and subsequently came into the possession of Rev. James King, by whom it was donated with twenty-five acres of land to Holston Presbytery, Synod of Nashville, for a college for the education of young men for the ministry.
In 1868 the institution was chartered as King's College. Dr. Tadlock continued as president until 1885, when he was succeeded by Dr. J. Albert Wallace, who had filled the chair of mental and moral philosophy since 1885. The institution justly ranks high among the colleges of the South, and while the attendance is not large the standard of education is high.

Dear Sir:
Your letter was received some days ago and your card yesterday. I have been from home much this summer, and then later the opening of the College put large demands upon me.
I wanted more time to see if I might give you help which I can't give now. I have not overlooked your letter I cannot answer definitely the questions you ask. I am a descendant of Blount Co, "Tenn. Wallace family. My father, Benj. Wallace (REV)born in Blount Co. He lived in Hamilton Co, Tenn where he brought up a large family, 8 boys and 4 girls. He married Mary Anderson, Dau. of Isaac Anderson, in McMinn Co, Tenn. His father was Abraham Wallace of Blount Co, and was a cousin of Campbell Wallace, Late of Atlanta.
My father died at 49 years and I have been from hone so early and so long that I never had much opportunity to learn of my family beyond my grandfather. I think my grandmother Wallace was a McClelland. I wish I could help. I do not know to whom to direct you, unless you write to Capt. Fletcher Wallace of Maryville, home. He might give you some help.
If you publish the story I want to get one. I will be glad to hear from you and help where I can.
Most Respectfully,
J. Albert Wallace
