General noteObituary notice of the author, dated Nov. 14, 1804, p. [24], states that "soon after his arrival in New-Haven, he was confined to his bed, and prevented from making his defence. After a partial recovery, he proposed to his friends, his wish to publish his brief or summary of defence, which being judged advisable, he furnished them with his ideas on this subject, which being reduced to writing, the manuscript and proof sheets were shown to him as fast as they were prepared, and he approved of them." Franklin B. Dexter in his Biographical sketches of the graduates of Yale College, v. 4, p. 23, states that Abraham Bishop was "by common report understood to have been the author" of Judd's address.
