When the late Professor Agassiz had been several years in America he induced his friend and co-worker in Switzerland, Professor Arnold Guyot, to leave his country and settle in the United States. This he did and at first lived here in Cambridge. He first attracted public attention by a series of lectures which he delivered in Boston in 1848. These were spoken in French and were translated for the papers by Professor (afterwards president) Cornelius Felton, under Guyot's personal supervision. Later Guyot's went to Princeton where he has remained for thirty years.
