Let's "see"... JB Ward was the AGENT for the author of the BEALE PAPERS ("BP"); JB's COUSIN, FC Hutter (CSA) was the AUTHOR of the "BP". Robert MORRISS was just an "actor" (non-existent), who "put together" a story on the Beale Expedition (?!?) to "cover up" the REAL story of REBEL "assets" being buried WEST of Lynchburg, Va. (in the mountains) and POSSIBLY NORTHWEST and in SOUTH-side VIRGINIA. Looking at HISTORY... FORGETTING BC # 1 & BC # 3. MORE, later.
The problem here is that by producing the cover up story, as you suggest, they have in fact created suspicion, just as you suspect so would have others, especially if they already suspected the presence of a hidden fortune. It would equate to tossing the tuna to the cat, would it not? i.e., why create a cover story to something that is already a well kept secret? Why risk drawing attention?
