Summary: | This image is a photograph used in the book Auburn, a Pictorial History of the Loveliest Village by Mickey Logue and Jack Simms, 3rd edition, 2013, depicting the history of the city and the university. From page 34: String ties, hats, books, and log fences were the picture-taking style in 1869 at East Alabama College as EAMC was now known to many. So were solemn expressions on, from left, John Frederick Greene, Jamestown, Georgia, now part of Fort Benning; William M. Allums, Union Springs, and W. G. Shehan (or Shehee, depending on the source), Enon. All three were majoring in Latin and mathematics. In addition, Greene, triple-majored in Greek, and Allums and Shehan in chemistry.
