A lovely presentation of the best loved tales from Thomas Ingoldsby Legends, with the original Jim Crow reference in the last verse. Jim Crow had been established as a racist epithet by the time the first edition was published in 1837, Thomas D. Rice having just appeared in blackface in London for the first time in 1836.

Ingoldsby, Thomas [Richard Harris Barham]. The Jackdaw of Rheims.
