Shortly after the pamphlet was published I suspect just about everyone in the entire county had a copy of those "buried treasure" ciphers. Hazlewood included! Not really, but ok.
At present, we know of two large collections of wealth that existed in the west during the period of the Beale pamphlet, and possibly even a third, which are still researching. Ironically, all three of these collections of wealth were connected to the same venture and people, the "exact" nature and terms of that venture still not fully understood, as it might very well never be. Of these two collections of wealth we do know that by late 1819 the first one no longer existed in the west, as to where it may have been moved to we have located no certain documentation, all we do know about this first collection of wealth is that date of its last existence in the west corresponds with the date of the first Beale deposit.
As for the second collection of wealth we know that it was also removed from the west towards the east in the same mysterious manner as the first collection of wealth, the date of this relocation also corresponding with the date of the second Beale deposit.
Got a lot of time...just got too much to look at.
Well get on it, I'm itching to read the whole story.
If one goes way out beyond the box, one can give the 1885 Beale Papers the Littlefield treatment, and create a literary allegory that has nothing to do with the pamphlet Ward copyrighted and published for sale only in Lynchberg,Virginia.
So you're suggesting Littlefield and Sherlock Holms told Ward and Hutter how to do it......"Brilliant!"

That French roast got you talking strange. You know it was Girard convinced Buford to do it while passing around a hookah after reading ALICE IN WONDERLAND, a literary allegory about the East India Co opium trade and Queen Victoria's response.
