LOL! Newton Hazlewood was THE ONE who gave the THREE pages of FIGURES (NUMBERS?) to Clayton Hart to "copy"; Clayton changed the FIGURES/NUMBERS "slightly". THEN, he & his brother, George, became "Beale" Treasure hunters, interviewing J.B. Ward & his son about the "Beale" Story; since the Hart Bros. were from Roanoke, Va., the original papers of FIGURES/NUMBERS may be in the VIRGINIA ROOM of the Roanoke, Va. Library on Elm Street... dunno. AND THAT! Is MORE info than YOU have!
Not really, but ok.
Shortly after the pamphlet was published I suspect just about everyone in the entire county had a copy of those "buried treasure" ciphers. Hazlewood included! 

That French roast got you talking strange. You know it was Girard convinced Buford to do it while passing around a hookah after reading ALICE IN WONDERLAND, a literary allegory about the East India Co opium trade and Queen Victoria's response.
