[meteorite-list] Anne and Monnig article

[Anne Black]

Thank you very much Jim.

I am glad you enjoy those articles, and found the time to decode that 
message.

I agree with you, I believe he means Jones, a friend of his in 
Chattanooga.

What I find surprising is how things have changed in less than 80 
years, particularly transportation and communication. Just imagine how 
the same problem would be handled nowadays.

Again thanks.

Hi List
For those of you who have seen the new issue of Meteorite Time you may 
have
noticed that Anne in her article about the Monnig papers on the 
Harriman
meteorite that one note was in code only partly decoded. Here is the 
rest of
that coded message.


..... in Chattanooa and had turned the matter of recovering possession 
over to
an attorney. How much luck do you think then will have. Fortunately I 
never did
write _ones. Do you have any further instructions in the matter.


The spelling of Chattanooga was wrong in the coded message the cipher 
for "g"
was missing in the word. Also, will is will not WE'LL as I think it 
should be.
But, he had not editor in his coding writing. Also, I could not 
definitively
determine the letter where the _ is, which seems to be a name. Because, 
"c" is
used only once as a cipher and X, Z, and Q are all available and Caps 
can be
more than one cipher it seems. Jones was my guess but I leave the 
answer to
someone else.

Thanks Anne it was a fun project.

Best regards, Jim Tobin
