If there is any truth to the Beale treasure tale then we have conclusively established that the author of the pamphlet already knew exactly what was in the ciphers and how they were composed. So with this being established now - then if he truly believed there was a treasure then why publish the story at all? Why not just go get it? Could it be that because even after having exactly what was in each cipher and knowing exactly how each cipher was composed that he still didn't know where the treasure was at?
Here's another HUGE issue that every claim of solution is eventually subject to. These claims of solution are all based on the belief that the story is true and that the treasure is real and yet even in their own claims of solve they unknowingly lay claim that the story isn't true, and here's why.
The author claims that he is publishing the pamphlet with the hope that someone will discover “the missing unintelligible piece of paper.” By definition “unintelligible” means; impossible to understand or to comprehend, and quite obviously, if we don't understand it or comprehend it then we certainly can't apply it.
So with the above the author is telling his readers that they won't be able to read or to understand or to comprehend or to apply the missing piece of paper that is still required in order to achieve a complete solve. Every claim thus far has been based on “intelligible” works so if the author's narration is true and the treasure is real then by simple default none of their solutions can be correct, nor can there be a solve without the author's knowledge of how to turn the missing unintelligible piece of paper into something intelligible. So right from the very start your pamphlet author has told his readers that they can not solve the remaining ciphers without a piece of paper that will be completely unintelligible to them.
If the story is true then this is likely the reason why Ward was named as the pamphlet's only contact, so that in the event the missing piece of paper ever came forward then Ward could direct that individual to the author, or the only man who knew how to turn that unintelligible piece of paper into something intelligible.
Now remember, before some of you tell me that I'm full of it, it is the pamphlet author that details this unintelligible missing piece of paper and the required need for it, not me.
