=== History ===
J.B. Cripps was born sometime around 1826, making him around 72 by 1898, and 78 by 1904. He had a father, but he did not get along well with him, who stated that he will be nothing but a dirty drunken hobo all of his life. Cripps was not initially from the American Southwest, according to his stories.
According to the said stories, Cripps once attempted to rob a bank in Tennessee with his friends, Limpy Pete and Phil the Crab. Although it could be a made-up story, Cripps stated that they were locked the vault and when their hygiene got worse and the clerk was horrified by the smell, he opened the vault door and all three ran. However, while Cripps escaped with his life, Pete and Phil were caught and hanged the next day. Cripps also stated that he trained as an acrobat in Portugal, even mentioning a mute man who talked in his sleep. These stories could be half true and half lie to provide interest and entertainment.
At some point, Cripps moved to the Southwestern territories and met the LeClerk couple, but kept a run-down camp as his home, having been years since he slept with four walls around him, and even longer with four walls and a roof.
