Description
Summary:This image is a photograph used in the book Auburn, a Pictorial History of the Loveliest Village by Mickey Logue and Jack Simms, 1st edition, 1981, depicting the history of the city and the university. From page 61: A view south from the main building in the late 1890s or early 1900s showed the white fence that lined what is now Samford Park. At lower right was a stile that students used to cross the fence. At left, across today's Thach Avenue, was the home of General James H. Lane, on what became the northeast corner of the Draughon Library grounds. At extreme upper right was the Agricultural Experiment Station barn. Photo source: Auburn University Archives.
