JEFF BRAMLETT
Arizona Republican Newspaper, Phoenix
November 22, 1891

Another peculiarity of Arizona life, or rather death came 
to light at Globe last week.  A man named Jeff Bramlet 
died there recently and was buried as can be proven by 
sixteen witnesses.  In order to satisfy themselves that 
he was still there, they exhumed his remains, which 
apparently would satisfy anyone but a Yavapai County 
man.  Nevertheless, a warrant was issued from a 
justice's court for his arrest upon an alleged charge 
of burglary, because, it is claimed he is now in 
Jerome, working in a restaurant.  It must, indeed, 
be pleasant to have spooks wait on you at a restaurant 
table.  The scriptural paragraph, "He is dead, yet he 
liveth" evidently referred to an Arizona man, as no 
where else will the climate or people allow such a 
free use of ghosts.
