Fellas, here's what SO MANY are missing in this tale of treasure. When Rembrandt painted a picture that picture was an authentic painting by Rembrandt. When Ty Cobb signed autographs those signatures were authentic signatures by Ty Cobb. So when an author pens a treasure tale that tale, and the statements within, are authentic works of the author, hence, “containing authentic statements.”

This is the first hook in the story, a hook that has captured so many willing and all-too eager fish over the years. The author is telling the truth when he states that the narration contains “his” authentic statements, but he never even hints that the tale itself is true, or that “his authentic statements” are true. This is why the book, when copyrighted, was never designated either way and why the author didn't include the text body with that copyright application.

Nowhere in the entire text does the author claim his statements are true, and in fact, the only people who have made such claim are those who have read the story and simply want to believe in that treasure. This is why no provenance has ever been discovered supporting the tale, and never will be, because the actual adventure in the narration never took place. This is why the author avoided using such introductions as, “containing a true account” or “containing details of true events” etc., etc. But he could say, “containing authentic statements.”

Put on your nickers....cool air heading your way, just passing through here. Just looked at the extended, in the 40's for low next week. Where was August? I remember August always being HOT....not so this year. Was unseasonably cool all last month for the most part. :icon_scratch:

Not in Florida. Just the typical hot humid , lighting, thunder, rain, and hot humid again. 8-)
James Beverly Risqué probably lucked out when he didn't get that Florida position he requested, being accustomed to Virginia's four seasons, instead of Florida's two.

Anyway, back to the subject of this thread, so where does this leave everything? Obviously the tale isn't factual as presented and so there exist nothing that can be tracked down in that regard.
 

So instead of a true tale we simply have a narration that contains, "authentic author statements."

The original source material, this is why you always have to research that source first, so all of those contrary and conflicting facts don't rise up later to bite you in the butt, again and again. :icon_thumright:
 

Imagine writing a tale of treasure and then offering your readers two ciphers of completely random numbers that, if solved, will reveal the location of the enormous treasure. Good lord, just imagine how many different proposed solutions would arrive from those completely random numbers as folks set out to creating clear text for them in all manner of ways. :laughing7: I think, given the history that has followed the Beale narration ciphers, we can establish our provenance to this very outcome. :icon_thumright:
 

By the way, all of my post in this thread contain authentic statements.

...and it also states that "containing authentic statements" is an ORIGINAL work of the author and not derivative from other copyrighted sources.
