I found out the solution awhile ago so will tell you all at least how to find the start. There are some gates you need to get through first.
1. The name Thomas J Beale. You are meant to fill in the J as Jefferson: you are given the hint of the Declaration of Independence for a reason so you 'get' the name Thomas Jefferson. (By the way BEALE is just the first two letters of the Hebrew ALPhaBEt reversed, it's telling you who put the code together: heed this hint!).
2. I can't fathom why but no one got the next clue being that Thomas Jefferson himself lived in Bedford County. And was a surveyor. You all need to look at this person (Thomas Jefferson) a lot closer.
3. What is the link between Thomas Jefferson, his activities and someone else whose surname appears in the Beale Papers?
These are the first clues on how to solve the Beale Cipher. The person/s who can work it out come back and talk to me .
