Tubman, iMAIDSgand A B5iN Class 'JZ The building on Reynolds Street was three times enlarged by the Board of Education. On March 22, 1916, the building and entire equipment were totally destroyed by fire. Plans were immediately drawn for a new school. Two years before the fire the Board of Education purchased a tract of land on Yvalton 1Vay, known as the Sehutzen Platz. In November, 1916, the people of Augusta and Rich- mond County voted a bond issue of 361001100 for the erection of a girls' high school on the present Xvalton 1Vay site. The plans for the school were drawn by 111: G. Lloyd Preacher, architect, and the construction of the building was awarded to the Palmer-Spivey Construction Company. 1Vork on the building was begun in January, 1917, and after many interruptions due to the 1Vorld VVar, the building was completed and first occupied February 18, 1918. From ltlarch 22, 1916, until the new building was completed, the sessions of the school were held in Sunday School Building of the First l'reshyterian Church, the First Baptist Church, basement of Central Grammar School, and a resid- ence at 617 Telfair Street. This condition necessarily made it hard for the school to carry on its work, but at no time did the spirit of the school, for which the Tubman has long been famous, fail to assert itself. It was a happy day when the long talked of new Tubman school with its modern building, com- plete equipment and its beautiful grounds became at least a reality. The new Tubman ranks among the finest high schools in the country, and is the pride of Augusta. -Anna C. Eve.
