'The Bunsby Papers' is a collection of mythic stories written by John Brougham. A total of nine stories are to be found inside the book, some of which bearing the following titles: 'The Test of Blood', 'The Fairy Circle', 'The Morning-Dream', and 'The Gospel Charm'. The author has this to say about the stories featured inside: "With regard to the pages which follow, I have endeavored to imbue them more with a Hibernian spirit, than with any attempt at orthographic peculiarity, inasmuch as I consider it but a factitious species of wit which hinges upon an amount of bad spelling. I have, therefore, abstained in a great measure from perverting the language, only doing so where it is absolutely necessary to give individual character. Some of the sketches are now for the first time presented; others have before appeared, but such as they are, here they are; all I can say in their favor is, that they were drawn from no source but my own invention; could I have done better, be assured I would; and yet, although they are not as perfect as I might wish them to be, still, I am not without hope, that some amusement, and also-or my arrows have indeed been shot awry-some incentives to a deeper reflection than accompanies the mere story-telling, may be found scattered here and there amongst them".
