About this book

The Reminiscences of an Irish Land Agent is credited to Samuel Murray Hussey, and the opening adds "BEING THOSE OF S.M. HUSSEY Compiled by HOME GORDON". The preface says the first criticism of the book will probably be that it is colloquial, and says Mr. Hussey has for two generations been one of the most noted raconteurs in Ireland. The author says "I married my first cousin, Julia Agnes Hickson."

A relative is named as "my mother's eldest brother, John Hickson, called the Sovereign of Dingle". One story has the Chief Baron say very quietly, "If you do not keep quiet, I shall send to the next Court for my brother." The text says that in some country districts "they are still convinced that the priests have power to transform them into frogs and mice".
