saint and martyr. The name of this saint has been corrupted in various ways, but Baudillius is that assigned to him by St. Gregory of Tours (De Gloria Mart. i, 78). Very little is known about him, but the common opinion is, that he was born in that part of Celtic Gaul which lay towards the Loire; that he was married, and bore arms, although he is also said to have been subdeacon in the Church of Orleans. He suffered martyrdom at Nismes, in the 3d or 4th century, and is a saint of some celebrity in Spain and France. His festival is marked on May 20, and an account of him will be found in the Acta Sanctorum.
