I found the following story the other day: “A SINGING MOUSE- Some time ago I had the opportunity of hearing one of these animals, and was struck with the sweetness of its song. So loud and sweet did it sing that I could not distinguish it from a loud singing bird. It was caught in a cellar, and lived about four months in confinement. One individual offered half a guinea for it. – H.P” ( Bradford-street, Manchester) (1)
