Lament for much-loved squirrel to go on show in London exhibition

A poetic lament for a squirrel named Jack, written by James Hadfield—a patient at Bethlem Royal Hospital who attempted to assassinate King George III in 1800—will go on public display for the first time at the Bethlem Museum of the Mind in London. The work is part of a new exhibition titled "Between Sleeping and Waking: Hospital Dreams and Visions," opening August 14, which also features a major installation by contemporary artist Kate McDonnell and other previously unseen works from the hospital's historic art collection.
