Mermaid on the River Deveron, Aberdeenshire

From the Ipswich Journal, 7th February 1746.

[...] We hear from the North, that some Days ago a Sea-Creature, known by the Name of Mermaid, which has the Shape of a human Body from the Trunk, but below is wholly Fish, was carried some Miles up the Water of Devron.
