Title	1890s: Looking south from Samford Hall
Description	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 50: Looking south in the 1890s from Samford Hall, one saw a rural setting, complete with barn and lot. At right, where Mary Martin Hall now stands, was the home of Professor P. H. Mell. At left, near the horizon, was the Experiment Station. Auburn University Archives identified the long, one-story frame building in the center as a bowling alley. Barely visible, to the viewer's left of the barn, was a cyclone pit, a reminder of the storms that have severely damaged Auburn in both the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
