A PARTY OF STUDENTS
AUBURN MEN STUDY HISTORY IN
 MONTGOMERY.
Led By pr. Petrie, They Formed a "suryey'' and Visited All Points of Interest In Capital City.

| At the head of his advanced histori- | cal students, Dr. George Petrie, pro- 1 lessor of history in the Alabama Poly l technic Institute at Auburn came to l Montgomery yesterday afternoon on
 the belated Atlanta and West Point Railway train to visit for practical
 study the many points of historic in- | terest in Montgomery.
 The party was met at the union rail- l way station by Dr. Thomas M. owen, | Director of the State Department of l Archives and History, and alumni of the Polytechnic Institute who accom-
 pained the visitors in their jaunt. | The students of Dr. Petrie came to
 Montgomery we'll prepared for the
 benefit to be derived from a survey
 of the historical sites and buildings
 that remain in this. the first capital of
 the Confederacy. They are in their
 second year of the curriculum astab-
 lished by Dr. Petrie for what is now
 known as the Historical Seminary of
 the college at Auburn According to | the w-fangled system of the Semi | nary, the students are fought as well
 how to work and dig and write his-
 tory and principally Alabama history as to read intelligently what has al- | ready been written.
 The party under the direction of pr.
 Petrie and Dr. owen. was economic of
 time. and before they had hardly alight-
 ed from the incoming train they were gazing upon thehrdlu amahr mahrllo
 east of the union station shed where the old depot stood when Jefferson
 Davis and his party arrived in Mont
 gomery fin 1861.
 A few minutes later the eyes of the
 students were attracted to the red blum
 visible to the northwest of the station l eA
 village of the Creek tribe. The sur
 vey" then moved on up Commerce
 street to the next site of interest. This | was the spot on the corner Of Talla-
 poosa and Commerce streets which will l be marked by a bronze tablet as the place where on April 1. 1925 Marquis
 de Lafayette was accorded reception
 and ball on his trip to Montgomery Advancing one block farther to the
 corner of Bibb and Commerce streets, the Survey ascended the steps of the
 building now occupied by tn eClancey hotel and other business proprietors. | Here on the second floor suite of
 rooms were pointed out as that which
 was occupied by President Jefferson
 Davis, of the Confederate States of
 America and his cabinet, including Sec
 retary of the Treasury Meminger.
 Leaving the humble early cabinet quarters of the Confederacy. the Sur vey" was next piloted to the White House of the Confederacy located on Bibb and Lee streets, the building that
 was occupied by President Davis for time during his residence In Mont gomery The students were informed that efforts are now making by the women of the city to have the relic
