course on the Life, Character, and Writings of the Hon. Francois
Xavier Martin," ibid.,
II (Philadelphia, 1850), 17-40. Of Bullard's
critical ability a friend said: "His opinions while on the bench are
models of judicial rhetoric, brief, perspicuous, and pointed. As a
writer he had few equals; he wrote without effort, yet with a critical
accuracy that defied correction." Ibid.,
III (New York, 1851), 6.
