<p>Tullar was named after the American President and Vice-President, Ulysses S. Grant &amp; Schuyler Colfax. His father was unable to work, having been wounded in the American Civil War Battle of Antietam. So, after Tullar&#8217;s mother died when he was two years old, the family split up. Grant had no settled home after that day until he became an adult.</p>
<p>As a child, he worked in a woolen mill and as a shoe clerk, and received virtually no education or religious training. He came to Christ at age 19 at a camp meeting near Waterbury, Connecticut. He then attended the Hackettstown Academy in New Jersey. Ordained a Methodist minister, he pastored for a short time in Dover, Delaware, then became a full time evangelist. In 1893, he and <a href = "./hymns/hymns_bio/bio_m_e_meredith_ih.html" >Isaac
Meredith</a> founded the Tullar-Meredith music publishing house in New York.</p>
