[Thomas H. Simpson.] J.R.C. Freight Boat Sarah Jane. A Burlesque on Pinafore. Lynchburg Va: Virginian Book and Job Print, 1884. Libretto for a local burlesque minstrel version of Pinafore.

Originally printed in 1880, the libretto was reprinted for performances in 1881, 1884 and 1889 with topical changes in lyrics. Only the 1889 printing lists Thomas H. Simpson as the author. J.R.C. presumably refers to James River Canal.
