  JESSIE F. STALLINGS, prominent Attorney-at-law, Greenville, was born in Butler
County, this State, April 4, 1855, and is a son of Robert and Lncinda (Ferguson)
Stallings, of that county.

  Mr. Stallings' grandfathers were among the early settlers of Butler County,
having settled there in 1818.

  Mr. Stallings' father was a farmer, and his sons were brought up to that
vocation. The subject of this sketch was educated at the Universities of
Kentucky and Alabama, graduating from the last named institution in 1877. After
teaching school one year he took up the study of law with Mr. J. C. Richardson,
of Greenville, as his preceptor. It is proper to remark, however, that he had
taken the law course at the Alabama University. He was admitted to the bar in
1879, and at once, in partnership with Mr. L. E. Brooks, entered upon the
practice. This partnership was dissolved at the end of two years, and the
present one, with Mr. C. L. Wilkerson, formed.

  Mr. Stalling was elected solicitor for the Second, or Montgomery District in
May, 1887, for the term of six years. He was married in March, 1885, at Eufaula,
Ala., to Miss Ella McCallister, the accomplished daughter of A. M. McCallister,
Esq., of that city. Mrs. Stallings died, leaving one child, and in 1887, Mr.
Stallings was married to Miss Bessie McCallister, a sister of his former wife.
