Anything yet?

 

[ECS]

Well there is always twice told lore based on séances with mediums and spirit guided adventures. epitaphs in solved ciphers, and non-existing brothers or fiction based on 99% fact that keeps being posted as provenance...
but hard tangible evidence...
Don't think so.

Surely, with so many certain claims of solve, somebody has something.....no?

Sarcastic taunting...?

Not at all. Just hoping that someone can come up with an actual point of provenance.

There is always that much mentioned "iron box" claimed to have been in the possession of Pauline B Innis which she was not allowed to photograph for her book.

That isn't provenance, that's hearsay, just more he-said-she-said stuff.

 

[ECS]

The entire Beale saga is predicated on hearsay beginning with the alleged "unknown author".

Been gone a few days, just checking to see if anything new was posted while I was gone. Status quo, I see.

One can produce a doctored newspaper add like Robert N Williams, say they saw the missing "key" letter of Beale like Ellis or the famous iron box and show a torn slip of numbers covered paper, per Innis. or empty wine bottles and 30 gal salt brine pots- it is very easy to manufacture provenance when writing a book on Beale due to the vagueness of the presented plausible information and purposeful discrepancies in the pamphlet's narrative text.
...and MOST IMPORTANT, once the Beale provenance it presented, it disappears, never to be seen again.

Once one removes all the presented claims of "items" that disappear after a book is published, or the lack of photographic evidence to prove said claim, or "evidence" obtained through séances, psychics, clairvoyants guided by spirits, or force fitting real events as the basis for the Beale perilous adventure treasure story, it all comes back to the hard fact that there is no evidence, no provenance, and the Beale Papers narrative story is just that, a story.

Hurray and you figured that out all by yourself.

Yes, yes, indeed.

 

[Rebel - KGC]

Yes, yes, indeed.

Now, you BOTH can just GO AWAY! Heh...

 

[bigscoop]

Now, you BOTH can just GO AWAY! Heh...

You'd miss us. Besides, if we'd go away the story would be quickly solved a thousand times over and over again.....and where has that gotten everybody?

 

[franklin]

At least we are in the trenches searching and researching while you and ECS stand in the cheering or booing section urging everyone to stop this insanity of trying to find the Beale Treasure.

 

[ECS]

From the photos he has posted, Justintime has really been searching in the nooks and crannies and occasional cave in the trenches of Bedford county.

 

[ECS]

Now, you BOTH can just GO AWAY! Heh...

...and miss all the warm camaraderie of the kind hearts and gentle people that post on these Beale threads!

Before I start digging a hole in the ground, and then living in that trench, I'd first like to know if there's actually anything to dig for. Gotta find some provenance first, without it's just a bunch of endless rabbit holes.
