This is a fascinating cylinder by Roger Harding(tenor) and Len Spencer(baritone) from around 1898.
This is announced by Spencer, but if you listen carefully, he doesn't sound quite right(possibly a little tipsy to be reasonable...), Roger Harding sings fine on this one, and it's great because Fred Hylands is probably on the piano behind them, as you can hear some syncopation on the piano at the beginning.
here it is:
