    2. >From Freeman's Journal and Daily Commercial Advertiser ( Dublin, Ireland ), Saturday, March 9, 1844; Issue N/A. ANOTHER SINGING MOUSE ! - Mr. John WOODWARD , baker of St. Peter's, in the Isle of Thanet, has in his possession one of those extraordinary animals, which was caught on the premises of Dane Court Lodge, the residence of Mrs. MILNER , who had heard the little animal several times previous to its being caught. It has been visited by a greater part of the inhabitants of this place, who expressed their astonishment and admiration of the notes of the little animal. The writer of this notice has witnessed it several times; the sounds it emits are a low but shrill whistle, something similar to the notes of a nightingale.
