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 13: These were Alabama A&M cadets, or were they Alabama Polytechnic Institute cadets? Depends on whether the picture was taken before the name changed to API in 1899, and who knows? At any rate, the cadets appeared on good behavior standing with two bearded men at the Auburn depot. A seasoned conductor on the Atlanta & West Point line might have doubted this picture.
