A well known lawyer, notable speaker, and club member, Bunn was also an art collector. His collection was auctioned in Philadelphia in 1914.

Freeman & co.," Philadelphia, 1914.)
Bunn's biennial message to the legislative assembly of the Idaho Territory was published in book format in 1884. (See William M.
