What I'm talking about is the second letter in the box! This letter explaining the ciphers C3 would have all the associates who are each entitled to an equal part and the names and residences of the relatives.
The fakes will just put out thirty names on a page and claim that's done. We can separate them fast as fakes!
Lynchburg, Va., January 5th, 1822.
Dear Mr. Morriss. - You will find in one of the papers, written in cipher, the names of all my associates, who are each entitled to an equal part of our treasure, and opposite to the names of each one will be found the names and residences of the relatives and others, to whom they devise their respective portions. From this you will be enabled to carry out the wishes of all by distributing the portion of each to the parties designated. This will not be difficult, as their residences are given, and they can easily be found.
