Contemporary with Turner lived Dn 
J'Villiam Bulleyn* Although this 
writer does not come ftriclly within my 
plan ; yet, as lie lived at a period bar- 
ren of interefling materials, and, as we- 
learn from him feveral carious anecdotes 
refpedling natural hiilory and the ftate of 
gardening in England at that period, he 
cannot be paffed over in fJence* 
BifliopTANNER briefly notices Dr. Bul- 
leyn, and his writings ; but his life is 
amply written in the Biographia Brita?inica, 
to which I muft principally be indebted for 
xny information, 
He.
