Let’s take a moment to actually examine
AND REASON WITH the proposition and narrative in the Beale Papers.
WE CAN JUST PLAY FILL IN THE BLANK.
A man, a very trusted and capable man (Beale) is entrusted with the vital fortunes and futures of 30 other men and their families.
AFTER MURDERING THEM. In all of his wisdom he provides a narrative and three ciphers to another just in case things
IN THE KGC go badly
AND (Morriss)
DECIDES TO KILL THEM AS WELL. And if things have gone badly then Morriss is to decode the ciphers using an unknown key
CALLED THE ROOSEVELT DEATH NOTE that will arrive to him by some unknown means, none of this to take place until after ten years have passed.
OK, who in their right mind would give three ciphers to an individual who’s very service might prove the final fate of the entire enterprise, those “alleged” ciphers perhaps being too complex for this individual to decode, or perhaps the key might never arrive, or perhaps that individual (Morriss) could easily be dead in ten years time? Does this sound like the actions of a wise and capable man (Beale)? Absolutely not!
Also, thirty men, now very rich men, transport all of their new-found wealth clear across a continent and not a single one of them says, “Nope, not going back, I’ll take my share now and live out the rest of my life on easy street.” Nope, all thirty of them are hell-bent on leaving their new-found fortunes at an unsecure location (a well known cave was mentioned) so they could all go back across the continent and possibly die thus leaving their new-found fortunes to anyone who might happen upon it.
THAT'S ALL Folks, it is all just another completely unreasonable treasure tale
WOVEN TO CONCEAL THE AFFAIRS OF THE CONFEDERATE STATES OF AMERICA. Not a single one of you would agree with any of the above terms
THAT ARE BEING PROPOSED BY THE FLOOD OF 'RESEARCH' BEING DONE, and yet some here still believe? This is the attraction of treasure tales, that promise of wealth and fame that defies all logic, common sense, and sense of reason.
