After the meeting of the Lyceum, a commit- tee was appointed to select the subject of debate for that evening. The disputants were chosen by lot, and were subject to a fine if they did not speak five minutes on the question before the Society. To guard against all possible collusion, the members of the committee were not allowed to participate in the discussion. This arrangement, affording no oppor- tunity for preparation, and throwing the debaters upon their own resources, was not only product...ive of personal improvement, but of infinite entertainment. Professor Hoyt's public spirit was again manifest in his efforts to beautify Exeter. He loved trees. He felt almost a personal affection for them. He re- marked of himself, that "his knowledge of trees was second only to his acquaintance with Greek and mathematics. " The best varieties of fruit and shade trees ornamented his grounds; and in the summer season he was wont to cultivate them with daily labor, and with scientific care to protect their growth from the inroads of insects.
