Brace is a native of Alleghany County, Maryland, and was born June 10, 1835. He became a resident of Missouri in 1856. At the breaking out of the war he enlisted in the Confederate cavalry service, and by repeated promotions became a colonel. When the bar of the Drake Test Oath was removed, he resumed the practice of his profession. In 1874 he became a member of the State Senate, and gained a wide reputation as an orator of rare grace and eloquence. In 1879 he became probate judge of Monroe County; in 1881, a judge of the circuit court; and in 1887, a member of the Supreme Court..[1]
