The Beale Papers Hoax

"The Beale Papers" published in 1885 by J. B. Ward contains a set of three codes. Each of which is a set of numbers. According to the Beale Papers the first specifies the location of a vault where there is a fortune in buried treasure; the second talks about what the first and third code contains; and the third a list of names. Of the three codes only one has ever been broken which in the Beale paper’s its titled “No.2”. The author of the Beale Paper’s claims to have been the one to break the code based on converting the numbers to the first letter of the corresponding word in the Declaration of Independence.

If you haven’t read the original Beale paper’s I’d recommend reading the complete text of the Beale Paper’s which is copied at the end of this document. I would also recommend reading the following book.

 

Nobody has been able to break the Beale codes for either the location of the vault or the list of names. This leads to the question if the codes are genuine or a hoax. This document will show that there is strong evidence to suggest that the Beale codes are hoax and in the unlikely event they are not a hoax how attempts to decode the location of the vault or the list of names would be almost impossible.

 

The following reasons are evidence that point toward the paper’s being a hoax:

 

  1. Errors occurred encoding paper “No. 2”. There are both counting errors of the Declaration of Independence and differences in the Declaration of Independence published in the Beale Paper’s compared to the original Declaration of Independence. These errors had to either be known to the Beale Paper’s author and the author duplicated these errors when writing the manuscript but failed to mention them or the author was not aware of the errors because he was the one that made the errors when writing the codes. The most convincing example of this is the declaration miscount at 480 that matches exactly the error in the code values.

 

  1. If you use the miscounted Declaration of Independence on the location of the vault suspicious sequences of characters occurred. For example, abcdefghiijklmmno.

 

  1. The letters n, v and e have the interesting quality of not being the start character of nearly as many words that contain these characters. Therefore, someone decoding the document would need to reuse words (code values) more often for these letters. “No 2.” Follows this statistic but the vault location and names codes do not.

 


Decoding “No 2”

 

According to the letter if you map original Beale codes based on the Declaration of Independence you get the following text.

 

I have deposited in the county of Bedford, about four miles from Buford's, in an excavation or vault, six feet below the surface of the ground, the following articles, belonging jointly to the parties whose names are given in number three herewith: The first deposit consisted of one thousand and fourteen pounds of gold, and three thousand eight hundred and twelve pounds of silver, deposited November, 1819 The second was made December, 1821, and consisted of nineteen hundred and seven pounds of gold, and twelve hundred and eighty-eight pounds of silver; also jewels, obtained in St. Louis in exchange for silver to save transportation, and valued at $13,000.00  The above is securely packed in iron pots, with iron covers. The vault is roughly lined with stone, and the vessels rest on solid stone, and are covered with others. Paper number "1" describes the exact locality of the vault so that no difficulty will be had in finding it 

 

What you actually get if you map the numbers given in the letter is.

The discrepancy could be caused by one or more of the following: The Declaration of Independence text has changed; some of the code numbers were either originally incorrect or at some point copied incorrectly; or the counts into the Declaration of Independence are wrong. A quick look at the original declaration shows that the declaration hasn't changed which leaves the last two options.


To determine what mappings are incorrect we can line up the incorrect words with the results from the original letter. The majority of differences are spelling errors but there are a few places that a different amount of characters occur or the entire word is missing from the code. These differences are shown in bold.

Here is the list of differences:

One thousand appears to really be ten hundred

Three before the second occurrence of thousand maps to tsirtt which has an extra character

The second occurrence of thousand is missing from the code

The word pounds is missing from the code

silver to save maps to to sbis

first occurrence of iron maps to ton ; code appears to be missing a letter or may spell tin or some other word.

 

The next step is to try to determine if the remaining differences are incorrect code values or the code mapping to the word in the declaration is incorrect. Since we know what each letter the code should map to we can find the closest word to the code in the Declaration that would be the proper character. For example, we know “have” is  the second word in the code given by the numbers: 73, 24, ,807, 11 ,37 which map to h(73) a(24) i(807) e(37) using a correctly counted Declaration of Independence. The letters h, a, and e map correctly but the i should really be a v. If we look at the text around the 807th word in the declaration we have:

 

for(801) introducing(802) the(803) same(804) absolute(805) rule(806) into(807) these(808) colonies(809) for(810) taking(811) away(812) our(813) charters(814) abolishing(815) our(816) most(817) valuable(818) laws(819) and(820) altering(821) fundamentally(822) the(823)

 

The closest v  is the word valuable at count 818. Therefore the offset from the code to a matching word in the declaration is 11 words.

 

Here is the complete table of the offsets, including the codes that map directly. Each entry is the word count into the declaration, the word in the declaration, and then the offset to the closest word that maps to the known value.

By examining the offsets it is interesting to note that the offsets seem consistent throughout ranges of numbers.

 

1 - 107 is an exact match with a few instances of the code being off by 1

108 is off by 47

109 to 154 is an exact match

155 – 241 is off by -1

244 – 420 is an exact match

440 has an offset from 19 and one of zero

466 is an exact match

485 – 505  is off by 10

 

From 511  to 666 there seem to be a number of differences. However, if you take a closer look at what the deltas can be you get

 

511 (2) maps to e, 511 + 9 also maps to e

554 (-1)  maps to a t 554 + 9 also maps to a t

557 (-8) maps to an n. 557 + 9 maps to an n

581 (4)  maps to a j, 581 + 9 maps to a j

620 (-8) maps to an e, 620 +9 maps to an e

643 (2) maps to a, 643 + 10 maps to an a

647 (-9) maps to an I, 647 + 10 maps to an I

 

which collapses to

511 – 620 is off by 9

643 – 666  is off by 10

 

807 is off by 11

811 is a y and there is no letter that begins with y, assuming off by 11 error still exists 811 + 11 (822) is the word fundamentally that ends in y so maybe this is what was used

 

1005 is an x and there is no letter that begins with x. only word that contains the letter x in the declaration is at 994 (sexes) at offset -11.

 

We can then collapse the table to only show codes that the delta changes or the same code maps to different letters.

For the items that are not zero it needs to be determined if these are the author is using a different version of the Declaration of Independence; a counting error; or  errors in the code numbers. The trend of all the codes within a range having the same offset error indicates that the majority of differences occur because the person who generated the codes counted the Declaration of Independence incorrectly or was using a different version.

 

Taking a look at the Declaration of Independence as it is published in the Beale document show that there are differences in between it and the real Declaration of Independence.

 

Differences between the documents are:

 

Original

Beale

certain unalienable

certain inalienable

To secure these rights

To secure their rights

That whenever any form

That when any form

To institute new government

To institute a new government

That mankind are more disposed

That mankind are now disposed

Exposed to all the dangers

Expose to all the danger

He has affected to

He has offered to render

Absolute rule into these

Absolute rule in these

The forms of

The powers of

Justice and of consanguinity

Justice and consanguinity

And by authority

And by the authority

 

Some of the differences are  added or missing words such as the a added to the line “to institute a new government”. This corresponds exactly where the offset goes from zero to –1. if the a is added back the offset remains correctly at zero.

 

There are also counting errors in the Beale declaration. At 480 the offsets calculated above change by 10. If you look at the copy of this section of the declaration from the Beale Paper’s you can see that at 480 there is a counting error of 10 because whoever counted marked 480 again for the next 10 characters counted. .

 

 

The list of incorrect counts are:

11 words between 240 and 250  instead of 10 resulting in count being off by 1

range 480 to 489 used twice

range 500 – 510 only 9 words instead of 10

range 630 – 640 11 words instead of 10

range 670 – 680 11 words instead of 10

one or more counting errors occur in the range 680 – 807 (tbd)

 

If we use the Beale declaration and incorrect counts there are still a few errors. One error is our subsitute of inalienable for unalienable. If this is changed the remaining errors look like errors in the code numbers such as the number 32 which for all occurrences except one map directly.

 

Remaining Errors are:

 

32 * the*,0,0,0,1,0

53 * respect*,0,0,0,0,0,1,0,0,0

84 * created*,0,0,1,0,0,1,0

96 * rights*,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,-1

108 , 47

188 , 3

440 * unusual*,20,0

 

108 stands out in this list because it has an offset of 47.

 

188 is off by 3

 

440 has both an offset of zero and 20. since 440 falls within the zero offset range the 20 is suspicious. It is interesting to note the word at 440 is uncomfortable 440 + 20  is with. Since u and w are similar its possible that the u code was used by mistake.

 

Next we can take a second look of the parts of the code that we didn't know how to map to the document provided in the letter. We take the codes plus the offsets we identified and get the following results

 

One thousand appears to really be ten hundred

 

29,138,47, 73,239,540,52,53,79,118 – ten hundred

 

Three before the second occurrence of thousand maps to tsirtt which has an extra character

 

14,205,140,344,26,811 – thirty (So the three is actually thirty)

 

silver to save maps to tosbis

 

26,46,110,230,807,191 – to save (silver doesn't appear in the code)

 

first occurrence of iron maps to ton ; code appears to be missing a letter or may spell tin or some other word.

 

220,106,353ron

 

looks like the word is iron but the I is missing. However, if you look at the code to the left of iron you see it is the 108 which as stated above has an offset of 47 in  which is well above the other deltas. Looking at the original document indicates the proper text should be : in iron

 

so we have a character missing, plus the code 108 which doesn't map close to an n. Both of these issues can be corrected if 108 is changed to 10,8

 

2,10,8,220,106,353in iron

 

After looking at the deltas and finding the necessary changes to the code with a very small set of changes to both we can get the codes to map to the text.

 

The changes to the codes are:

4th  occurance of the number 32 changes to 33

6th occurance of the number 53 changes to 54

3 and 6th occurance of 84 changes to 85

8th occurance of 96 changes to 95

188 goes to 191

first occurance of 440 changes to 460

change code 108 to 10,8

The differences in the code numbers could have happened either in the original encoding of the document or when it was copied into the Beale book. The missing words in the codes such as pounds and for silver could have been added mistakenly or on purpose when copying the transcript.

 

The offsets suggest errors occurred when the words were being counted in the Declaration of Independence. These errors have to be the same in the encoding and decoding of the codes so if the Beale codes are not a hoax one of the following needs to be true: Both Beale and Ward would have had to coincidentally made the same counting errors and both used a copy Declaration of Independence with the same missing and different words from the true Declaration of Independence; Ward forgot to mention the miscounts; or somebody besides Ward broke the code. I find it hard to believe that Beale and Ward both had the same counting errors and incorrectly copied Declaration of Independence. For Ward figuring out the offsets I doubt if he would have forgotten to mention this because it would have been no small feat to both figure out the key document was the Declaration of Independence by looking at the original mappings; determining the counting error or drop a word (remember this is 1885 do he would be doing all this by hand) and then forgetting to mention it in his book. The last option that somebody besides Ward broke the code goes against Ward’s credibility for the document since he claims to be the one that broke the code.

 

The above shows that even if you believe the Beale papers are not a hoax it would be hard to find the key document(s) due to counting errors and the codes being copied incorrectly when the papers were originally encoded.


The location of the Vault

 

The following text is obtained if the vault document is decoded with the Declaration of Independence. Some codes are greater than the total number of words in the DOI which are indicated by an *.

If instead of using the DOI we use the DOI adjusted for the counting errors we obtain the text below. * are again used for codes larger than the total number of words in the DOI and ? marks are used for codes that we aren’t sure what the adjustment should be because the code value aren’t used in No 2.

Names

 

Here is the list of names decoded with both the DOI and the adjusted DOI. There don’t seem to be anything that supports a hoax or authentic code using the adusted DOI but I’ve included it here for completeness.

Where are the N and E Characters

 

The letter N, and E have the interesting quality of not starting very many words but are contained within words.

 

In a run of 100 words n on average will be the first character to only 1-2 of these words but in a run of 100 characters (of valid words) it appears 6 – 7 times. E will only be the first character in 2-3 of  words but there will be 11 – 12 characters.  V also has this feature but it usage is rare. In 1000 words you can find the letter view 1-2 times but in 1000 characters it occurs 11-12 times

 

Therefore, if a document is being used as a key there are fewer words to choose from for N and E so higher usage of a code number would indicate a good chance the code maps to either an N or E.

 

If we take a look at paper2 and sort the codes by how many times they are reused you get the following top 15 codes

Notice these correspond to what we would expect. Of the top 15 codes  8 are either an e or an n. V is also included. Although it isn’t surprising that there were few v’s to choose from in the document it is surprising the v was used so many times. Also note that number 807, 106, 140, 138 appear in the top five even though they are high numbers

Notice these are a lot flatter and the numbers don’t go over 218. Statistically if there can only be a few n’s and  and e’s every hundred word then the majority of these numbers cannot be n’s or e’s. This would indicate that the key document used contains more words that begins with n and e’s than your typical document or the codes don’t spell anything.

 

Of the top five numbers in paper 1 only the number 216 is over 100. in paper 3 nothing goes over 96.

 

Another side point is if you put the to used  numbers in paper 1 and 3 side by side the majority of the top numbers are different. If the paper’s are not a hoax it would indicate that if the same key document was used it would contains a very very unusually high words that start with n and e or that each code has a different key document.

Know the Codes

 

Many of the pages on the Internet that list the Beale codes are listing what was printed in the Innis book "Gold In The Blue Ridge". The No. 2 code published in this book have been altered to match a correctly counted Declaration of Independence. This can easily be seen by looking at the first few codes we see the fourth code in is different

 

Innis book No2:           115      73        24        818      37

Beal Paper’s No 2:       115      73        24        807      37

If you will recall from above in the counting error discussion at 807 there is a miscount delta of 11.


 

Here is what I have for the codes.
