A Prominent Attorney of Kingston. The subject of this sketch was born of humble parentage on a farm in Roane county. Educated himself, graduating at Friendsville academy, working his way as janitor. He then taught school, and was afterwards a student of the University of Tennessee. Was next principal of a high school in Alabama, returning later and studying law under Judge Jno. J. BLAIR. He at once formed a co-partnership at Kingston with Col. Sam Epps YOUNG and since that time Mr. BREAZEALE has been seen in most all important cases in the Roane County courts, his skill and ability being wonderfull. A staunch republican, always carries his point, a fine organizer, and is now chairman of the county republican committee and is a member of the Second congressional republican committee.
