The facilities for procuring an education by our subject were such as 
the common schools of the country afforded, until he was eighteen years 
of age, when, by his own exertions, he managed to attend the high school 
at Rocky Hill two years, after which he enjoyed the advantages of a term 
at Smith's Grove College, since which time he has been a constant 
student.  He has been actively engaged in teaching during the past seven 
years, and is now successfully conducting an academy in Gainesville, 
where his work is highly commended by the patrons of the institution.  
Prof. Pace is a member of the Baptist Church, and in politics is a
