This is a one off rag by a composer about whom I could find no information. It's a well written piece and contains snippets of Mendelssohn's Wedding  March, Dixie and The Arkansas Traveler. I couldn't locate a title page...Steve.

This is in the Jacobs' Banjo Collection Vol. 6.  I'd post it but the Archive seems to be having problems currently. 

Hi Joel, thanks for that, I took my arrangement from the piano score and have added lots of my own embellishments consequently it's more of a challenge to play than the version in Jacobs....Steve.

Walter Jacobs, at this time, published within the construct of club or orchestra playing and often the various parts would work together with each other.  In some cases, such as this one, the banjo solo can be a little clunky while filling out within the ensemble. 

That said, Jacobs arrangements tend to mostly be high quality or serviceable.
